Resumen:The habits of cloud particles are a significant factor impacting microphysical processes in clouds. The accurate identification of cloud particle shapes within clouds is a fundamental requirement for calculating various cloud microphysical parameters. In this study, we established a cloud particle image dataset encompassing nine distinct habit categories, totaling 8100 images. These images were captured using three probes with varying resolutions: the Cloud Particle Imager (CPI), the Two-Dimensional Stereo Probe (2D-S), and the High-Volume Precipitation Spectrometer (HVPS). Furthermore, this study performs a comparative analysis of ten different transfer learning (TL) models based on this dataset. It was found that the VGG-16 model exhibits the highest classification accuracy, reaching 97.90%. This model also demonstrates the highest recall, precision, and F1 measure. The results indicate that the VGG-16 model can reliably classify the shapes of ice crystal particles measured by both line scan imagers (2D-S, HVPS) and an area scan imager (CPI).
