====== The infinite MNIST dataset ======

{{ five.png?120}}
Why settle for 60000 MNIST training examples when you can have [[:projects:infimnist|one trillion]]?
The MNIST8M dataset was generated using the elastic deformation code originally written 
for [[:papers:loosli-canu-bottou-2006|(Loosli, Canu, and Bottou, 2007)]]. Unfortunately the 
original MNIST8M files were accidentally deleted from the NEC servers a couple weeks ago.
Instead of regenerating the files, I have repackaged the generation code in
a convenient form. 

===== =====

You can now generate arbitrary amounts of pseudo-random 
MNIST training examples. You can even use this code to generate your training 
data on the fly. We call this the [[:projects:infimnist|infinite MNIST dataset]].
