Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have demonstrated remarkable performance in a variety of pattern recognition and image classification tasks. However, their efficiency and accuracy can be influenced by the selection of relevant features from the extracted representations. Manual feature selection can be tedious, prone to human bias, and computationally inefficient. This paper presents a hybrid framework that integrates Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) with CNNs to perform automatic feature selection. The proposed BPSO-CNN approach reduces feature dimensionality, improves classification accuracy, and accelerates training. Experiments conducted on a benchmark image dataset show that the BPSO-based feature subset outperforms the baseline CNN in both accuracy and computational efficiency. The results indicate that metaheuristic optimization, specifically BPSO, can significantly enhance the practical deployment of CNN-based models in real-world applications.
