MNIST dataset
13 Jan 2018
MNIST is a dataset of 60.000 examples of handwritten digits. It is a good database to check models of machine learning.
All images are a greyscale of 28x28 pixels.
LeCun began to test this dataset in 1998 with 12% error (linear classifier). Last models have reach a 0.5% error.
Example coded in Keras (using tesorflow backend).
- Input layer 28*28 = 784
- First layer: Dense 512, activation: relu
- Second layer: Dense 512, activation: relu
- Final layer: Dense 10, activation: softmax
- Function loss: cross entropy
- Gradient algoritm: Minibatch 128 size and RMSprop
- Num epochs: 20
'''Trains a simple deep NN on the MNIST dataset.
Gets to 98.40% test accuracy after 20 epochs
(there is *a lot* of margin for parameter tuning).
2 seconds per epoch on a K520 GPU.
