Abstract
Waste management is a critical issue that all major urbanized communities must address. In today’s world, sustainable growth is targeted by major economies, and waste management is one of the areas that will help with that. Abundant research has been conducted into automating waste separation to segregate the waste from recyclable to non-recyclable. The margin for human error is reduced by the introduction of automation. Machine learning and advanced deep learning models, assist in reaching this goal by allowing for the construction of high-accuracy models. The segregation of plastic trash into plastic types was the emphasis of this study paper. The current research proposes the development of an automated system that uses deep learning models to classify plastic garbage. This study aims to develop a model that is highly accurate, scalable, and simple. The study experimented with three models, Inception-ResNet-v2, VGG19, and Xception. VGG19 delivered promising results and is better than the state-of-the-art canny edge detection-based model by almost 22%.
