Objectives: This study explores the integration of advanced machine learning methods, specifically convolutional neural networks (CNN), with bacterial image classification to enhance the reliability and efficiency of bacterialclassification systems. We present a deep learning approach for the automatic classification of Gram-stained bacterialimages into Gram-positive and Gram-negative categories. Methods: Gram staining is a widely used microbiological technique that distinguishes bacteria based on cell wall composition, classifying them as either Gram-positive or Gram-negative. We propose a CNN-based architecture designed to automate this classification process. The model is trained on a large, annotated dataset of Gram-stained bacterialimages, leveraging the power of deep learning to achieve state-of-the-art performance in terms of both accuracy and processing speed. Results: Our results show that deep learning can significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of Gram-stained bacterial image classification, paving the way for automated microbiological analysis in clinical and research settings. Our proposed architecture has classified the gram-positive and gram-negative images of bacterial cells, achieving an accuracy of 95.74% and precision of 96.97%. Novelty: Historically, Gram-stained bacterial image classification has been performed manually by microbiologists. This research pioneers the use of deep learning techniques for the automated classification of these images, achieving substantial improvements in both accuracy and speed. This innovation paves the way for the integration of automated image analysis into microbiological diagnostics and research.
