Classification Functions for Handwritten Digit Recognition
Tsutomu Sasao, Yuto Horikawa, Yukihiro Iguchi · IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems · 2021
A classification function maps a set of vectors into several classes. A machine learning problem is treated as a design problem for partially defined classification functions. To realize classification functions for MNIST hand written digits, three different architectures are considered: Single-unit realization, 45-unit realization, and 45-unit ×r realization. The 45-unit realization consists of 45 ternary classifiers, 10 counters, and a max selector. Test accuracy of these architectures are compared using MNIST data set.
