I'm trying to insert a table in Microsoft Word. The entire page would consist of only this table, and I want it to be perfectly centered (both horizontally and vertically) on the page.
I'm not having any trouble getting it perfectly centered horizontally on the page, but I can't seem to get it to vertically center on the page. I have the page layout set to center vertically, but there's an extra line below the table that it won't let me remove, which is causing extra spacing below it.
I'm using Microsoft Word 2010. How can I get this table to center perfectly vertically and ignore this silly line that it insists on being there?

This should be pretty easy using the Table's properties. Try this: General architecture for text engineering for machine learning.
FWIW, you shouldn't even have to modify the Page Layout Property, this solution addresses the Table's location regardless of the Page's properties, so any text you may want to add could still be top justified.

Horizontal centering is fine as you stated, but IMO to achieve perfect vertical centering you'll have to place the table inside a text box, resize the text box to have the same margins on all 4 sides of the table, remove the text box border and finally center the text box on the page using either KaranKaran

Insert -> WordArt, then Format tab appears.
Click Review tab.
Click Format tab again.
Now, click Effects button ('A'), and select 'Transform' from the drop-down menu.

In Office 11 (Mac) at the top, go to VIEW and make sure 'Standard' is selected under 'Toolbars'. Go to Insert → WordArt. Type in your text in the wordart box. Hit the 'Format' button, right next to 'Home'. One of your new selections under 'Text Styles' should be 'Effects'. Click on Effects and select the last selection, 'Transform'.
You should have a whole selection of options including curving text up or down, and making circles. You can edit the curvature by pulling on the text box handles, up and down, and on the corners. You can rotate the text box by clicking and holding on the long 'knob' on the text box.
