Abstract: The paper discusses the subject of convolutional neural networks used for handwritten digit classification. The purpose of the research is to evaluate the accuracy, performance, training, and classification time of three OCR networks (VGG-16, VGG-19 and AlexNet) and compare them with each other while selecting the most optimal one. The popular MNIST dataset of 70,000 images was used for the study. For each model, a preliminary study was conducted to determine the optimal parameters in the form of the number of input data and number of training epochs. The result of the work indicates that, despite the longer training and classification time, the AlexNet model achieved the highest precision, recall, and F1-score, indicating its ability to effectively classify images.
