Structural Preservation Governs Data Augmentation in Deep Learning-Based Laser Speckle Material Classification 文章

arXiv:2607.22725v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Data augmentation is routinely used to improve generalization in image classification, but the assumptions underlying standard policies are poorly matched to coherent imaging. Laser speckle patterns are not generic textures; they arise from coherent interference, and their discriminative content is carried by structured stochastic spatial and frequency statistics. This study examines how controlled augmentation perturbations influence speckle-based material classification on the SensiCut dataset. We train ResNet18 and EfficientNet-B0 under a parametric augmentation framework comprising rotation, Gaussian blur, independent Gaussian noise, spatially correlated speckle-aware noise, intensity jitter, and spatial masking, and evaluate test performance using macro F1-score averaged over three random seeds. Separate ordinary least squares models link augmentation parameters to performance for each architecture.
