403: Forbidden downloading mnist_data #8

Closed diramazioni closed 6 years ago

diramazioni commented 6 years ago

Hello, I've just cloned the repo and trying out the first mnist_1.0_softmax example that attempts to download from https://storage.googleapis.com/cvdf-datasets/mnist/ currently not accessible... other sources?

I am looking into what happened here. In the meantime, you can find the data here: http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/ Download the files, unzip them and put them in a directory called "data" and the script will not attempt to download them from the faulty URL.

wow it works! Very well done example and tutorial. tensorflowvisu is also quite useful as a tool to reuse in other projects, I'm digging into the source :) What's the best way to ask questions about the code? (if possible at all)

martin-gorner commented 6 years ago

For visualisations I recommend Tensorboard. I did it differently in this sample only because I wanted the visualisations to animate as training progressed but that's just for show.
