Smoke and Fire Classification using Transfer Learning

This project focuses on classifying images into two categories: Smoke and Fire, using deep learning and transfer learning techniques. We use EfficientNetB0 as a pre-trained model, perform fine-tuning, and visualize performance through evaluation metrics and graphs.

🧠 Project Highlights

• Problem: Binary classification of images into "Smoke" or "Fire"
• Dataset: Custom dataset organized into train/test folders
• Preprocessing:
  • Image resizing to 224x224
  • Normalization
  • Label encoding
• Visualization:
  • Class distribution
  • Sample images
