When compute is limited, choosing between stronger results and a strong submission

A CVPR submission shouldn't be a test of your institution's hardware. When compute is limited, the choice between statistical rigor and a polished paper feels unfair, but it doesn't have to be paralyzing. We'd prioritize writing and presentation. A single-seed result, paired with reproducible code you're confident in, demonstrates integrity. Better to submit a clear, well-argued paper than gamble on unreliable reruns.
