A Hybrid Deep Learning Framework Utilizing BiLSTM and 3D-CNN with Grey Wolf Optimizer for Crop Image Classification
摘要
This paper proposes a hybrid deep learning model for efficient and accurate crop image classification. First, the original image is processed using a Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) to extract contextual and temporal features. Simultaneously, the image is decomposed into its Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) channels and passed through a 3D Convolutional Neural Network (3D-CNN) to capture volumetric and spatial color texture features. The features obtained from both networks are combined to form a high-dimensional feature vector. Later, Grey Wolf Optimizer (GWO) is utilized to select the most discriminative and relevant features. These selected features given to fully connected dense layers to perform classification. Experimental results demonstrated that the proposed hybrid model improved classification performance and achieved an accuracy of 92.25%.
