# CIFAR-10 Dataset
|
|
|
|
The [CIFAR-10](https://www.cs.toronto.edu/~kriz/cifar.html) (Canadian Institute For Advanced Research) dataset is a collection of images used widely for machine learning and computer vision algorithms. It was developed by researchers at the CIFAR institute and consists of 60,000 32x32 color images in 10 different classes.
|
|
|
|
## Key Features
|
|
|
|
- The CIFAR-10 dataset consists of 60,000 images, divided into 10 classes.
|
|
- Each class contains 6,000 images, split into 5,000 for training and 1,000 for testing.
|
|
- The images are colored and of size 32x32 pixels.
|
|
- The 10 different classes represent airplanes, cars, birds, cats, deer, dogs, frogs, horses, ships, and trucks.
|
|
- CIFAR-10 is commonly used for training and testing in the field of machine learning and computer vision.
|
|
|
|
## Dataset Structure
|
|
|
|
The CIFAR-10 dataset is split into two subsets:
|
|
|
|
1. **Training Set**: This subset contains 50,000 images used for training machine learning models.
|
|
2. **Testing Set**: This subset consists of 10,000 images used for testing and benchmarking the trained models.
|
|
|
|
## Applications
|
|
|
|
The CIFAR-10 dataset is widely used for training and evaluating deep learning models in image classification tasks, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), Support Vector Machines (SVMs), and various other machine learning algorithms. The diversity of the dataset in terms of classes and the presence of color images make it a well-rounded dataset for research and development in the field of machine learning and computer vision.

|
|
|
|
# Load a model
|
|
model = YOLO('yolov8n-cls.pt') # load a pretrained model (recommended for training)
|
|
|
|
# Train the model
|
|
results = model.train(data='cifar10', epochs=100, imgsz=32)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "CLI"
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Start training from a pretrained *.pt model
|
|
yolo detect train data=cifar10 model=yolov8n-cls.pt epochs=100 imgsz=32
|
|
```
