This research discusses the implementation and evaluation of the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) convolutional neural network model for classification of fruit types, specifically to differentiate between Banana and Papaya. The CNN model used consists of several convolutional, pooling, and fully connected (dense) layers designed to extract features and perform binary classification. Data augmentation is applied to the training set to increase data variation and prevent overfitting. The image data used is normalized to speed up training convergence. The model was trained using the Adam optimizer and the binary crossentropy loss function for 20 epochs. Performance evaluation was carried out using the validation set. The results show that the model is able to effectively classify fruit images with a high level of accuracy. Predictions are made by uploading images, resizing them, and normalizing them before using the model for predictions. The classification threshold was set at 0.4, where a predicted probability greater than or equal to 0.4 was classified as Banana and a probability less than 0.4 was classified as Papaya. This research shows that the CNN model can be used effectively for binary image classification tasks and can be extended to classify more types of fruit with appropriate data adjustments and model architecture.
