A novel deep neural model for efficient and scalable historical place image classification
摘要
Historical place image classification is a crucial intersection of artificial intelligence and cultural heritage preservation, essential for safeguarding architectural legacies in the digital age. Current AI classification systems often struggle with generalizability across regions and styles, require substantial computational resources, and lack interpretability for heritage professionals. This research introduces HistoNet, a hybrid deep learning framework designed to overcome these limitations. HistoNet integrates convolutional neural networks for local feature extraction and Transformer mechanisms for global context, while also using Mamba state-space models, which operate with linear time complexity O(L), thereby offering substantially higher computational efficiency than Transformer architectures that scale quadratically O(
