چکیده
Description of task: The MNIST, a database of Handwritten Digit Classification, (possibly) the most famous dataset in the field of Machine Learning is studied using different classification techniques on it and did a comparative analysis to reproduce the best possible accuracy on it. The standard algorithms were improved by applying various techniques such as extracting features via feature extraction, dimensionality reduction etc.

Reproducing Results of Guassian Kernel SVM classifers on the MNIST Dataset
The MNIST database is a widely known, well studied dataset of hand written digits. A wide variety of machine learning strategies have been applied to this data set with varying results. The website dedicated to the MNIST database details some of these results, including exactly one result without any citation or reference. It is reported that an SVM with a Gaussian kernel is capable of achievin...
متن کاملExtraction Method of Handwritten Digit Recognition Tested on the MNIST Database
This paper deals with an optical character recognition (OCR) system of handwritten digit, with the use of neural networks (MLP multilayer perceptron). And a method of extraction of characteristics based on the digit form, this method is tested on the MNIST handwritten isolated digit database (60000 images in learning and 10000 images in test). This work has achieved approximately 80% of success...

متن کاملEMNIST: an extension of MNIST to handwritten letters
The MNIST dataset has become a standard benchmark for learning, classification and computer vision systems. Contributing to its widespread adoption are the understandable and intuitive nature of the task, its relatively small size and storage requirements and the accessibility and ease-of-use of the database itself. The MNIST database was derived from a larger dataset known as the NIST Special ...
متن کاملSparse Communication for Distributed Gradient Descent
We make distributed stochastic gradient descent faster by exchanging sparse updates instead of dense updates. Gradient updates are positively skewed as most updates are near zero, so we map the 99% smallest updates (by absolute value) to zero then exchange sparse matrices. This method can be combined with quantization to further improve the compression. We explore different configurations and a...
