Fashion MNIST Dataset
What is Fashion MNIST Dataset?
The Fashion MNIST (Fashion Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology database) dataset is comprised of 60,000 samples of the training set and 10,000 samples of the test set. Each sample is a 28x28 grayscale picture with a label from one of ten classes. Fashion-MNIST is intended to be a direct drop-in replacement for the original MNIST dataset for evaluating machine learning algorithms. The image size and structure of the training and testing splits are the same.
