Knowledge Distillation (KD) is a widely used technique to transfer knowledge from pre-trained teacher models to (usually more lightweight) student models. However, in certain situations, this technique is more of a curse than a blessing.…

Knowledge distillation (KD) is a key technique for compressing large language models into smaller ones while preserving performance. Despite the recent traction of KD research, its effectiveness for smaller language models (LMs) and the…

Knowledge distillation aims at transferring knowledge acquired in one model (a teacher) to another model (a student) that is typically smaller. Previous approaches can be expressed as a form of training the student to mimic output…

In recent years, knowledge distillation has been proved to be an effective solution for model compression. This approach can make lightweight student models acquire the knowledge extracted from cumbersome teacher models. However, previous…

Knowledge distillation (KD) is a common approach to compress a teacher model to reduce its inference cost and memory footprint, by training a smaller student model. However, in the context of autoregressive language models (LMs), we…

This paper aims to provide a selective survey about knowledge distillation(KD) framework for researchers and practitioners to take advantage of it for developing new optimized models in the deep neural network field. To this end, we give a…

Does Knowledge Distillation (KD) really work? Conventional wisdom viewed it as a knowledge transfer procedure where a perfect mimicry of the student to its teacher is desired. However, paradoxical studies indicate that closely replicating…

Knowledge distillation (KD) has been actively studied for image classification tasks in deep learning, aiming to improve the performance of a student based on the knowledge from a teacher. However, applying KD in image regression with a…

Not forgetting old class knowledge is a key challenge for class-incremental learning (CIL) when the model continuously adapts to new classes. A common technique to address this is knowledge distillation (KD), which penalizes prediction…

The field of continual deep learning is an emerging field and a lot of progress has been made. However, concurrently most of the approaches are only tested on the task of image classification, which is not relevant in the field of…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) for Large Language Models (LLMs) has become increasingly important as models grow in size and complexity. While existing distillation approaches focus on imitating teacher behavior, they often overlook the…

Unstructured pruning remains a powerful strategy for compressing deep neural networks, yet it often demands iterative train-prune-retrain cycles, resulting in significant computational overhead. To address this challenge, we introduce a…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) is a common method for transferring the ``knowledge'' learned by one machine learning model (the \textit{teacher}) into another model (the \textit{student}), where typically, the teacher has a greater capacity…

With the improvement of AI chips (e.g., GPU, TPU, and NPU) and the fast development of the Internet of Things (IoT), some robust deep neural networks (DNNs) are usually composed of millions or even hundreds of millions of parameters. Such a…

Knowledge distillation (KD) has been widely used to transfer knowledge from large, accurate models (teachers) to smaller, efficient ones (students). Recent methods have explored enforcing consistency by incorporating causal interpretations…

Knowledge distillation (KD) has been recognized as an effective tool to compress and accelerate models. However, current KD approaches generally suffer from an accuracy drop and/or an excruciatingly long distillation process. In this paper,…

Incremental learning requires a model to continually learn new tasks from streaming data. However, traditional fine-tuning of a well-trained deep neural network on a new task will dramatically degrade performance on the old task -- a…

Collaborative learning has emerged as a key paradigm in large-scale intelligent systems, enabling distributed agents to cooperatively train their models while addressing their privacy concerns. Central to this paradigm is knowledge…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) emerges as one of the most promising compression technologies to run advanced deep neural networks on resource-limited devices. In order to train a small network (student) under the guidance of a large network…

Knowledge distillation aims to enhance the performance of a lightweight student model by exploiting the knowledge from a pre-trained cumbersome teacher model. However, in the traditional knowledge distillation, teacher predictions are only…
