CIFAR-10 is among the most widely used datasets in machine learning, facilitating thousands of research projects per year. To accelerate research and reduce the cost of experiments, we introduce training methods for CIFAR-10 which reach 94% accuracy in 3.29 seconds, 95% in 10.4 seconds, and 96% in 46.3 seconds, when run on a single NVIDIA A100 GPU. As one factor contributing to these training speeds, we propose a derandomized variant of horizontal flipping augmentation, which we show improves over the standard method in every case where flipping is beneficial over no flipping at all. Our code is released at https://github.com/KellerJordan/cifar10-airbench.

  1. AgentHPOBench: A Benchmark For Evaluating LLM Agents as Sequential Hyperparameter Optimizers

    cs.AI 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A new 30-task benchmark shows LLM agents can improve real ML experiments through sequential hyperparameter choices, but their gains are uneven and often not retained.

  2. An Embarrassingly Simple Way to Optimize Orthogonal Matrices at Scale

    cs.LG 2026-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    POGO uses a two-step tangent-plus-normal update with lambda = 1/2 to keep iterates near the Stiefel manifold at the cost of five matrix multiplications, making large-scale orthogonality constraints practical.

  3. Powerful Design of Small Vision Transformer on CIFAR10

    cs.LG 2025-01 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    A Tiny ViT on CIFAR-10 reaches 93.95% accuracy with two classifier tokens at reduced width, while low-rank query compression causes only a small accuracy drop.
