In forensic sciences, blood is a shred of essential evidence for reconstructing crime scenes. Blood identification and classification may help to confirm a suspect, although several chemical processes are used to recreate the crime scene. However, these approaches can have an impact on DNA analysis. A potential application of bloodstain identification and classification using Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI) can be used as substance classification in forensic science for crime scene analysis. Therefore, this work proposes the use of a fast and compact Hybrid CNN to process HSI data for bloodstain identification and classification. For experimental and validation purposes, we perform experiments on a publicly available Hyperspectral-based Bloodstain dataset. This dataset has different types of substances i.e., blood and blood-like compounds, for instance, ketchup, artificial blood, beetroot juice, poster paint, tomato concentrate, acrylic paint, and uncertain blood. We compare the results with state-of-the-art 3D CNN model and examine the results in detail and present a discussion of each tested architecture with limited availability of the training samples (e.g., only 5 % (792 samples) of the data samples are used to train the model, and validated on 5 % (792 samples) data samples and finally blindly tested on 90 % (14260 samples) of the data samples).
