Accurate classification of porcelain relic fragments is essential for restoration. Traditional methods, which depend on visual traits like glaze color and patterns, perform poorly with visually similar fragments, especially when microscopic image samples are scarce. To solve these issues, we introduce InSwAV, which integrates involution-enhanced residual blocks for robust feature extraction and employs a swapped assignment mechanism. This mechanism aligns deep features with learnable cluster prototypes by enforcing consistency between differently augmented views of the same image. The model is optimized by minimizing a cross-entropy loss against cluster assignments, which reduces training time significantly. we constructed the Porcelain Relic Microscopic Images (PRMI) dataset of five classification, with data augmentation applied to enhance model robustness. Experimental results show that InSwAV achieves a classification accuracy of 96.2% on the porcelain relic microscopic image dataset, outperforming existing methods.
