After 400 iterations of updates using minFunc, your autoencoder should have learned features that resemble pen strokes. Our implementation takes around 15-20 minutes on a fast machine. Visualized, the features should look like in the following image:

After 400 iterations of updates using minFunc, your autoencoder should have learned features that resemble pen strokes. In other words, this has learned to represent handwritten characters in terms of what pen strokes appear in an image.  Our implementation takes around 15-20 minutes on a fast machine. Visualized, the features should look like the following image:
