greydanus / mnist1d
A 1D analogue of the MNIST dataset for measuring spatial biases and answering Science of Deep Learning questions.
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does


What it does
Most machine learning models get around the same ~99% test accuracy on MNIST. Our dataset, MNIST-1D, is 100x smaller (default sample size: 4000+1000; dimensionality: 40) and does a better job of separating between models with/without nonlinearity and models with/without spatial inductive biases.
