Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research details the "Hello World" of image classification: a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to the MNIST digits dataset. The "Hello World" of image ...

Is zero closer to eight or to one? Is this a three or a five? This was the type of question we were pondering a few weeks ago when we examined the results of an image classification application. Yes, ...

When training neural networks to recognise things, what you need is a big pile of training data. You then need a subsequent pile of testing data to verify that the network is working as you’d expect.

The "Hello World" of image classification is a convolutional neural network (CNN) applied to the MNIST digits dataset. A good way to see where this article is headed is to take a look at the ...
