Questions tagged [mnist]
MNIST is a database of handwritten digits collected by Yann Lecun, a famous computer scientist, when he was working at AT&T-Bell Labs on the problem of automation of check readings for banks. The data set is a benchmark widely used in machine learning research. Due to its small size it is also widely used for educational purposes.s based on C++ but provides APIs for Python and Matlab.

Model misclassifies digits from MNIST dataset after trained it on Digits dataset
I am training a machine learning model to classify digits in order to detect and solve a Sudoku puzzle. Here’s the approach I followed: This is the pipeline I am following: Classifier training: I ...

My keras CNN model gives good predictions in 10/11 classes but missleads to the 11th class. What can I do to improve?
My project involves classifying printed numerical characters from real-life essays. My dataset includes 11 classes ('0' - '10'), with the label '10' representing the '/' symbol. The issue is that ...

Convolutional Network not Fully Learning MNIST (60% accuracy)
I have been working on a self-made Conv Net for some time. In addition to my network taking multiple epochs to increase the test-set accuracy, the accuracy flatlines at about 60% around 30 Epochs. ...

GAN/DC-GAN isn't converging
I've been trying to train a vanilla GAN(for MNIST) for a few days, and nothing works. I've tried a lot of different layers, hyperparameters, and more, but every time the discriminator's loss decreases(...

Is there a list of all the incorrectly labelled MNIST images along with their correct labels?
It seems that its well known that the MNIST handwritten digit dataset contains quite a few examples where the labels are clearly wrong and correspond to the wrong digit, some examples of people ...

What is the highest possible prediction accuracy when I flip some labels at random?
I want to predict MNIST labels in a binary setting using a simple MLP model (0 for digits 0-4 and 1 for 5-9). For the train and test data, I randomly flip 25% of the labels. Is the maximum achievable ...

Training and validation loss are almost the same (perfect fit?)
I am developing an ANN from scratch which classifies MNIST digits. These are the curves I get using only one hidden layer composed of 100 neurons activated by ...
