This research aims to modify a CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) based on LeNet-5 to reduce overfitting in a Tinalah Tourism Village dataset object detection. Tinalah Tourism Village has many objects that can be identified for tourism education and enhanced tourist experience. While these objects, spread across the different sites of Tinalah do vary, some share similarities in their histogram patterns. Visually, if the size of a picture is reduced in the LeNet-5 ‘preferred size’ feature, it will inevitably lose some of its information, making pictures too similar reducing accuracy. In order to learn and classify objects, this research performs a modification on LeNet-5 architecture to provide a better performance geared toward larger input imaging. The previous state-of-the-art architecture showed an overfitting performance where the training accuracy performed too much better than the testing accuracy in our dataset. We brought in a dropout layer to reduce overfitting, increase the dense layer's size, and add a convolution layer. We then compared the modified LeNet-5 with other state-of-the art architecture, such as LeNet-5 and AlexNet. Results showed that a modified LeNet-5 outperformed other architectures, especially in performing accuracy for testing the Tinalah dataset, reaching 0.913 or (91,3 %). This research discusses the dataset, the modified LeNet-5 architecture, and performance comparison between state-of-the-art CNN architecture. Our CNN architecture can be developed by involving a transfer learning mechanism to provide greater accuracy for further research.
