The tSNE clusters below indicate that MNIST-1D is much less linearly separable than the original MNIST dataset. This means that nonlinear features are much more important for successful classification.

Visualizing the MNIST and MNIST-1D datasets with tSNE. The well-defined clusters in the MNIST plot indicate that the majority of the examples are separable via a kNN classifier in pixel space. The MNIST-1D plot, meanwhile, reveals a lack of well-defined clusters which suggests that learning a nonlinear representation of the data is much more important to achieve successful classification.
