Top Nets

nets	test accuracy (%)	Dataset
C10+_Conv_Depth_20	95.77	C10+
C10+_DenseNet_Depth_76	96.56	C10+
C10_DenseNet_Depth_70	95.34	C10
SVHN_Conv_Depth_20	98.27	SVHN

For checking these networks, please download the corresponding model files and run the following command under the folder of code:

$ python3 main.py --test --path=<nets path>

For example, by running

$ python3 main.py --test --path=../final_nets/C10+_Conv_Depth_20

you will get
