Abstract: —Handwritten digit recognition has become a key area of research in the fields of computer vision,machine learning and pattern recognition. This project focuses on development of robust model for handwritten English digit recognition imple- menting CNN, a class of the deep learning algorithms particularly well-suited for image pro- cessing tasks. The model is trained and judged on the MNIST dataset, which consists of grayscale images of handwritten digits from 0 to 9. The CNN architecture employed in this project incorporates convolutional layers for the feature extraction, pooling layers for the dimension reduction and connected layers for the classification. Through extensive experimentation and hyperparameter tuning, the model achieves a high accuracy in digit recognition, demonstrating the effectiveness of CNNs in learning spatial hierarchies of features from input images. This system can be applied in areas such as postal automation, bank check processing, and digitization of handwritten forms.
