description Clothing image classification is more and more important in the development of online clothing shopping. The clothing category marking, clothing commodity retrieval, and similar clothing recommendations are the popular applications in current clothing shopping, which are based on the technology of accurate clothing image classification. Wide varieties and various styles of clothing lead to great difficulty for the accurate clothing image classification. The traditional neural network can not obtain the spatial structure information of clothing images, which leads to poor classification accuracy. In order to reach the high accuracy, the enhanced capsule (EnCaps) network is proposed with the image feature and spatial structure feature. First, the spatial structure extraction model is proposed to obtain the clothing structure feature based on the EnCaps network.

Third, parameter optimization is used to reduce the computation in the proposed network based on inception mechanism. Experimental results indicate that the proposed EnCaps network achieves high performance in terms of classification accuracy and computational efficiency.
