Knowledge distillation is one of the most effective methods for model compression. Previous studies have focused on the student model effectively training the predictive distribution of the teacher model. However, during training, the…

This paper proposes a novel knowledge distillation-based learning method to improve the classification performance of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) without a pre-trained teacher network, called exit-ensemble distillation. Our method…

Diffusion models excel at generative modeling (e.g., text-to-image) but sampling requires multiple denoising network passes, limiting practicality. Efforts such as progressive distillation or consistency distillation have shown promise by…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) has emerged as a powerful technique for model compression, enabling lightweight student networks to benefit from the performance of redundant teacher networks. However, the inherent capacity gap often limits the…

Knowledge distillation is used, in generative language modeling, to train a smaller student model using the help of a larger teacher model, resulting in improved capabilities for the student model. In this paper, we formulate a more general…

Self-supervised learning has achieved remarkable success in learning visual representations from clean data, yet remains challenging when clean observations are sparse or not available at all. In this paper, we demonstrate that pretrained…

Image matching and classification methods, as well as synchronous location and mapping, are widely used on embedded and mobile devices. Their most resource-intensive part is the detection and description of the key points of the images. And…

Knowledge distillation aims at obtaining a compact and effective model by learning the mapping function from a much larger one. Due to the limited capacity of the student, the student would underfit the teacher. Therefore, student…

Knowledge distillation, which involves extracting the "dark knowledge" from a teacher network to guide the learning of a student network, has emerged as an important technique for model compression and transfer learning. Unlike previous…

Depth estimation and scene segmentation are two important tasks in intelligent transportation systems. A joint modeling of these two tasks will reduce the requirement for both the storage and training efforts. This work explores how the…

Knowledge distillation is a popular technique for training a small student network to emulate a larger teacher model, such as an ensemble of networks. We show that while knowledge distillation can improve student generalization, it does not…

Language models rely on semantic priors to perform in-context learning, which leads to poor performance on tasks involving inductive reasoning. Instruction-tuning methods based on imitation learning can superficially enhance the in-context…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) aims to learn a compact student network using knowledge from a large pre-trained teacher network, where both networks are trained on data from the same distribution. However, in practical applications, the…

Recently, the performance of monocular depth estimation (MDE) has been significantly boosted with the integration of transformer models. However, the transformer models are usually computationally-expensive, and their effectiveness in…

While deep-learning-based image restoration has achieved unprecedented fidelity, deployment on mobile Neural Processing Units (NPUs) remains bottlenecked by operator incompatibility and memory-access overhead. We propose an NPU-aware…

Large language models (LLMs) are challenging to deploy for domain-specific tasks due to their massive scale. While distilling a fine-tuned LLM into a smaller student model is a promising alternative, the capacity gap between teacher and…

Diffusion Transformer (DiT) has emerged as the new trend of generative diffusion models on image generation. In view of extremely slow convergence in typical DiT, recent breakthroughs have been driven by mask strategy that significantly…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) transfers knowledge from a large teacher model to a smaller student by aligning their predictive distributions. However, conventional KD formulations - typically based on Kullback-Leibler divergence - assume that…

Differentiable Architecture Search (DARTS) is a simple yet efficient Neural Architecture Search (NAS) method. During the search stage, DARTS trains a supernet by jointly optimizing architecture parameters and network parameters. During the…

Knowledge distillation (KD) is an effective technique to transfer knowledge from one neural network (teacher) to another (student), thus improving the performance of the student. To make the student better mimic the behavior of the teacher,…
