myrtle.ai is the company blog at myrtle.ai, writing about ai and programming. Since 2018, 10 different Hacker News readers have linked it 11 times, most often “How to train your Resnet (79 seconds to 94%)”. No feed was found, so read it on the site itself.
Too few sampled comments (6) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link Myrtle's "How to train your ResNet" series, which covers training ResNets on CIFAR-10, including learning rate, batch size, momentum, batch normalisation and tricks such as input patch whitening.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 6 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

HN discussion OK, I exaggerated a little because I was recalling from memory: the old fast.ai approach actually takes <18 minutes ( https://www.fast.ai/2018/08/10/fastai-diu-imagenet/ ). My bad. (I'm sure it's improved since then but I don't know how much.) I was also thinking of https://myrtle.ai/how-to-train-your-resnet-8-bag-of-tricks/ which does CIFAR-10 in 26s but I'm not sure offhand what CIFAR-10's SOTAs look like so not s…

HN discussionSomeone else linked this in a different tree but I do truly love this blogpost series -- you can see the section "input patch whitening" for more details. https://myrtle.ai/learn/how-to-train-your-resnet-8-bag-of-tr... Alternatively, you can read through the direct code here if you're willing to wade through some of the mathy code on it: https://github.com/tysam-code/hlb-CIFAR10/blob/main/main.py#...

HN discussionNice experiment! Not to minimize your work, in fact some ideas might be complementary to yours, a couple years ago there were already some approaches reaching 30s on a single V100: https://myrtle.ai/learn/how-to-train-your-resnet-8-bag-of-tr...
