Classification model trained on scientific calculator achieves 98.96% accuracy

A user trained a classification model entirely on a Casio FX-82CE X scientific calculator, which is not programmable or graphical. The model was designed to classify MNIST images downscaled to 3x3 binary pixels, with a single output neuron determining the classification. Initially trained by hand on six images, the model achieved 67.04% validation accuracy. Further training for 1000 epochs using SGD resulted in a validation accuracy of 98.96%. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates the potential for training basic ML models on extremely constrained hardware, pushing the boundaries of edge computing.
