Machine learning is an integral technology many people utilize in all areas of human life. It is pervasive in modern living worldwide, and has multiple usages. One application is image classification, embraced across many spheres of influence such as business, finance, medicine, etc. to enhance produces, causes, efficiency, etc. This need for more accurate, detail-oriented classification increases the need for modifications, adaptations, and innovations to Deep Learning Algorithms. This article used Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to classify scenes in the CIFAR-10 database, and detect emotions in the KDEF database. The proposed method converted the data to the wavelet domain to attain greater accuracy and comparable efficiency to the spatial domain processing. By dividing image data into subbands, important feature learning occurred over differing low to high frequencies. The combination of the learned low and high frequency features, and processing the fused feature mapping resulted in an advance in the detection accuracy. Comparing the proposed methods to spatial domain CNN and Stacked Denoising Autoencoder (SDA), experimental findings revealed a substantial increase in accuracy.
