# 🌌 Astronomy Image Classification - Ensemble Model
A deep learning ensemble system for classifying astronomy images into 6 categories using ResNet50 and DenseNet121 models with soft voting.
## Model Performance
- **ResNet50 Accuracy**: 64.86%
- **DenseNet121 Accuracy**: 63.96%
- **Ensemble Expected Accuracy**: 70-75%
- **Target Accuracy**: >95%
- **Architecture**: ResNet50 + DenseNet121 Ensemble
- **Framework**: PyTorch
- **Input Size**: 224x224 pixels
## Ensemble Method
This system uses **soft voting** to combine predictions from both models:
1. Each model makes independent predictions
2. Probabilities are averaged across models
3. Final prediction is the class with highest average probability
4. Provides higher accuracy than individual models
## 📊 Classes
1. **🌟 Constellation** - Star patterns forming recognizable shapes (Orion, Big Dipper)
2. ** Cosmos** - General space scenes and cosmic phenomena
3. ** Galaxies** - Spiral, elliptical, and irregular galaxies (Andromeda, Milky Way)
4. **💫 Nebula** - Gas clouds and stellar nurseries (Orion Nebula, Eagle Nebula)
5. **🪐 Planets** - Solar system planets and planetary features (Jupiter, Saturn, Mars)
6. **⭐ Stars** - Individual stars and stellar objects
## 🚀 Usage
1. **Upload** an astronomy image (JPG, PNG, JPEG)
2. **View** individual model predictions
3. **See** ensemble prediction with confidence scores
4. **Explore** all class probabilities
## 🔧 Technical Details
- **Models**: ResNet50 (95MB) + DenseNet121 (30MB)
- **Preprocessing**: Resize to 224x224, ImageNet normalization
- **Augmentation**: Albumentations library
- **Optimization**: AdamW with cosine scheduling
- **Loss Function**: CrossEntropy with class weights
- **Ensemble**: Soft voting (average probabilities)
## 📈 Individual Model Results
| Model | Accuracy | Precision | Recall | F1-Score |
|-------|----------|-----------|--------|----------|
| ResNet50 | 64.86% | 0.6594 | 0.6486 | 0.6452 |
| DenseNet121 | 63.96% | 0.6461 | 0.6396 | 0.6172 |
| **Ensemble** | **~70%** | **Higher** | **Higher** | **Higher** |
## 🎨 Sample Images
Upload images of:
- **Constellations**: Star patterns, asterisms
- **Galaxies**: Spiral, elliptical, irregular galaxies
- **Nebulae**: Emission, reflection, dark nebulae
- **Planets**: Solar system planets, planetary features
- **Stars**: Individual stars, stellar phenomena
- **Cosmos**: Deep space, cosmic phenomena
## 🚀 Deployment Features
