network (CNN) models for classifying electrical components such as capacitors, diodes, resistors, ICs, inductors, and transformers. The CNN models are AlexNet, GoogleNet, ResNet50, and a proposed CNN model with a customized architecture. The paper describes the data collection, preprocessing, and augmentation steps, as well as the architecture and parameters of each CNN model. The paper evaluates the performance and accuracy of the CNN models using various metrics such as loss, accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and confusion matrix. The paper also analyses the factors affecting the results and provides insights and implications for the practical application of the CNN models. The paper concludes that ResNet50 is the best CNN model for the electrical component classification task, as it has the highest accuracy, precision, recall, and F1 score among the four models. It also has the lowest loss and the most accurate confusion matrix, indicating that it can learn and generalize the features of the electrical components very well.
