Collection and Analysis of a Training Data Set Designed for Neural Network Handwriting Analysis

For my project, I am working with creating a neural network without using libraries for simple handwritten digit recognition, however, I am taking a slightly different approach. I am creating a data set myself from volunteers and comparing that data set to a similar set created for the same function, specifically the MNIST database. My project I has been focused on learning the technical background required for this project, and from now through my next semester when I take project II, I will be collecting data and then performing the mathematical analysis of my results.
