Abstract:To address insufficient samples, overfitting, and limited deployment efficiency in few-shot image classification, a method integrating generative data augmentation and APCRLNet is proposed. Augmented samples are generated by an improved GAN, Poisson editing, and MS-Net, and optimized by SSIM-based screening and weighted training. APCRLNet combines asymmetric parallel convolution and residual learning, while channel pruning and 8-bit quantization are used for lightweight deployment. Experiments show that the proposed method achieves a Top-1 accuracy of 95.2%, improving by 6.7, 8.9, and 10.5 percentage points over comparative method, respectively, while reducing parameters by 42% and shortening inference time by 45%.
