description Waste type classification remains a daily challenge in modern waste management. Proper waste classification contributes significantly to environmental protection and enhances the efficiency of the recycling process. Unfortunately, manual waste classification is rarely performed by individuals, resulting in mixed waste that is difficult to separate into recyclable and non-recyclable categories. This leads to increased waste accumulation, which becomes harder to process over time. Therefore, automating this procedure using computer vision is of critical importance. This study adopts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) methodology to analyze existing research conducted by previous scholars. The main objectives are to identify the most appropriate algorithms for waste type classification, determine the most suitable model architectures, and examine the correlation between dataset size, number of classes, and classification accuracy. The results of the literature review show that the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) algorithm is widely used and considered highly effective for computer vision tasks. Among the best-performing models are: A standard CNN architecture achieving 100% accuracy with 150 data points and 3 classes, CNN with ResNet50 model achieving 99.41% accuracy on 2,527 data points and 6 classes, A combination of ResNet, k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN), and Neighborhood Component Analysis (NCA) achieving 99.35% accuracy on 13,089 data points and 1,672 classes, CNN with CapSA ECOC + ANN model reaching 99.01% accuracy on 1,515 data points and 12 classes. These findings indicate that numerous prior studies have successfully developed high-accuracy models for waste classification, which can serve as a solid foundation for building computer vision systems to automate the waste sorting process.
