VoltaVision: A Transfer Learning model for electronic component classification

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

In this paper, we analyze the effectiveness of transfer learning on classifying electronic components. Transfer learning reuses pre-trained models to save time and resources in building a robust classifier rather than learning from scratch. Our work introduces a lightweight CNN, coined as VoltaVision, and compares its performance against more complex models. We test the hypothesis that transferring knowledge from a similar task to our target domain yields better results than stateof-the-art models trained on general datasets. Traditional transfer learning uses large pre-trained models on general classification tasks to cut down on the time required for training.
