Abstract— This study evaluates 40 convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures from TensorFlow on MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets representing different visual complexities. Under unified experimental conditions, models from ConvNeXt, EfficientNet, ResNet, DenseNet, MobileNet, and other families were assessed for accuracy, loss, weighted metrics, training time, and memory usage. Results show distinct architectural effectiveness: on MNIST, most models achieved near-saturation performance (24 exceeding 98% accuracy) with minimal dispersion, indicating lightweight architectures suffice for simple tasks. On CIFAR-10, performance varied substantially (67.21–96.28% accuracy), with modern, capacity-rich architectures like ConvNeXtXLarge excelling but requiring greater computational resources. Comparative analysis reveals dataset-dependent optimality—EfficientNetV2 dominates MNIST while ConvNeXt excels on CIFAR-10—and demonstrates that architectural complexity yields meaningful returns only on visually complex datasets. These findings provide a practical framework for model selection based on task complexity and resource constraints.
