One-Shot learning based classification for segregation of plastic waste

Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition 2020-09-30 v1 Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

The problem of segregating recyclable waste is fairly daunting for many countries. This article presents an approach for image based classification of plastic waste using one-shot learning techniques. The proposed approach exploits discriminative features generated via the siamese and triplet loss convolutional neural networks to help differentiate between 5 types of plastic waste based on their resin codes. The approach achieves an accuracy of 99.74% on the WaDaBa Database
