Our approach is memory efficient:(i) batch-size is increased to further accelerate the search on CIFAR10, (ii) directly search on ImageNet. Searched on ImageNet, we achieved currently one of, if not only, the best performance on ImageNet (24.2%/7.3%) under the mobile setting! The search process in CIFAR10 only requires 0.1 GPU-days, i.e., ~3 hours on one Nvidia 1080ti.(1.5 hours on one Tesla V100) Implementation: PyTorch (origin)
