Achieving an impressive accuracy of 99.58%, this model stands out as a reliable tool for recognizing handwritten digits, trained and validated on a large-scale digit dataset with 240,000 samples for training and 40,000 for testing. ## Model Architecture The EfficientNet-DigitClassifier-99Acc features a sequential CNN architecture optimized for 28x28 pixel grayscale images. The architecture includes: - **Conv2D Layers:** Two convolutional layers with 32 and 64 filters, respectively, using 3x3 kernels and ReLU activation. - **MaxPooling2D Layers:** Pooling layers following each Conv2D layer to reduce spatial dimensions. - **Flatten Layer:** Converts the 2D matrix data into a vector for processing in dense layers. - **Dropout Layer:** A dropout rate of 0.5 to mitigate overfitting. - **Output Layer:** A dense layer with 10 units and softmax activation, corresponding to the ten digit classes. ## Dataset Training and testing were performed on a specially curated digit dataset derived from the MNIST database, featuring 240,000 training samples and 40,000 test samples. Each image underwent preprocessing to scale pixel values to the [0, 1] range and reshape to 28x28 pixels. ## Performance - **Test Loss:** 0.0169 - **Test Accuracy:** 99.58% This model exemplifies state-of-the-art performance in digit classification, providing a robust solution for applications requiring high accuracy in digit recognition.
