blending learning, image classification, machine learningAbstract
The paper commences with an introduction to blended learning, an educational approach that amalgamates traditional face-to-face instruction with online learning, aiming to capitalize on the advantages of conventional classroom instruction and digital resources in order to enhance the overall learning experience. The incorporation of diverse technologies facilitates a personalized learning experience that caters to the needs and learning styles of individual students. Image classification entails training machine learning models to categorize or label images into predetermined classes or categories, empowering machines to recognize and comprehend crucial components of visual information, emulating humans' classification of objects in the real world. The crux of image classification relies on extracting meaningful features from images and distinguishing different categories by associating specific features with distinct classes through iterative optimization learning. Machine learning significantly aids image classification by endowing automated systems with the capability to discern patterns, features, and distinctions within datasets, ultimately achieving accurate image classification. The integration of hybrid learning methods can augment the training process for machine learning models used in image classification by providing a flexible and adaptive learning environment.
