Hi, Andy I didn't do grid-search. I was just assuming that grid-search returns optimal parameters for fitting. I may be easily wrong. So I just used your parameters. But I stopped the fitting process. I'll try with smaller subset from MNIST this weekend, as I got some assignments to do, while this

Hi Caleb, thanks for the pointers. I'm curious what mnist dataset will give as a result and hope for better ones. I browsed the paper you linked, and assume you suggest I do transductive transfer learning model - but I have no idea how to relate that to sklearn and use it. Currently I'm trying to

Sure, here is example with 50 sample digits: http://nbviewer.ipython.org/gist/klonuo/b67789dc9fbea47633ac As mentioned I'll try later today to learn something from Andy's blog post and report back if I have anything. Cheers On Sat, May 24, 2014 at 9:22 AM, Ronnie Ghose wrote: > is it possible

Hi, thanks for your reply. 1. I tested about 100 samples with sklearn. In my example there was only one sample because of readability and simplicity. In short: I read image with opencv, then detect a region of interest and extract digits through contouring. These are machine written digits, but
