I want to download the MNIST handwritten digit data from the offical site: https://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/

But it wants me to enter a username and a password. How can I download the data? Does anybody know the credentials or any backup?

Thank you.

  • $\begingroup$ @ShimiShimson You just need to load it via tensorflow like : mnist = tf.keras.dataset.load_data() tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/datasets/mnist/… $\endgroup$ Commented Nov 24, 2023 at 0:21

The dataset can be downloaded from here: https://deepai.org/dataset/mnist

Additionally, Pytorch allows you to download it with:

dataset = datasets.MNIST('../data', train=True, download=True, transform=transform)
