Abstract
Tourism image classification plays an important role in the study of clarifying the real perception of tourism resources by tourists, which cannot be studied in depth by human vision alone. The development of convolutional neural networks in computer vision brings new opportunities for tourism image classification research. In this study, SqueezeNet, a lightweight convolutional neural network, was selected and improved on the basis of the original model for 3740 Slender West Lake tourism image datasets. It is found that the validation accuracy of the model is up to 85.75%, and the size is only 2.64 MB, which is a good classification effect. This reduces the parameters while ensuring high accuracy classification of tourism images, providing a more scientific reference for the study of tourism images and pointing out a new direction for the development and planning of tourism resources.
