# 🖊️✍️ Handwritten Digit Recognition Model

## 📄 Overview

🤖 **Model Name:** Handwritten Digit Recognition Model

🧠 **Model Type:** Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)

📊 **Input:** 28x28 grayscale images of handwritten digits (0-9)

🔢 **Output:** A 10-dimensional vector representing the probabilities of each digit (0-9)

🎯 **Purpose:** To classify handwritten digits from images with high accuracy

---

## 📚 Description

This model is designed to recognize handwritten digits from 0 to 9. It processes input images of size 28x28 pixels and outputs a vector of 10 probabilities, each corresponding to one of the digits. The digit with the highest probability is selected as the predicted class.
