A digital image is usually a raster, or pixmap, that maps colors to coordinates on a grid. That is, an image can be viewed as a matrix in which each element represents a color. A basic feature representation for an image can be constructed by reshaping the matrix into a vector by concatenating its rows together. Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a canonical machine learning problem. Let's use this technique to create basic feature representations that can be used in an OCR application to recognize hand-written digits in character-delimited forms.

The digits dataset included with scikit-learn ...
