CINIC-10 is not ImageNet or CIFAR-10
This is an incremental dataset for computer vision research, offering an extended alternative to CIFAR-10.
The authors introduced CINIC-10, a dataset compiled by combining CIFAR-10 with downsampled ImageNet images, and provided standard benchmarks for well-known models.
In this brief technical report we introduce the CINIC-10 dataset as a plug-in extended alternative for CIFAR-10. It was compiled by combining CIFAR-10 with images selected and downsampled from the ImageNet database. We present the approach to compiling the dataset, illustrate the example images for different classes, give pixel distributions for each part of the repository, and give some standard benchmarks for well known models. Details for download, usage, and compilation can be found in the associated github repository.
