Knowledge distillation becomes a de facto standard to improve the performance of small neural networks. Most of the previous works propose to regress the representational features from the teacher to the student in a one-to-one spatial…

Traditionally, distillation has been used to train a student model to emulate the input/output functionality of a teacher. A more useful goal than emulation, yet under-explored, is for the student to learn feature representations that…

Scaling architectures have been proven effective for improving Scene Text Recognition (STR), but the individual contribution of vision encoder and text decoder scaling remain under-explored. In this work, we present an in-depth empirical…

When deploying large-scale machine learning models for smart city applications, such as image-based parking lot monitoring, data often must be sent to a central server to perform classification tasks. This is challenging for the city's…

This paper presents an alternate representation framework to commonly used time-frequency representation for acoustic scene classification (ASC). A raw audio signal is represented using a pre-trained convolutional neural network (CNN) using…

This paper describes an acoustic scene classification method which achieved the 4th ranking result in the IEEE AASP challenge of Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events 2016. In order to accomplish the ensuing task,…

Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC) aims to classify the environment in which the audio signals are recorded. Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) have been successfully applied to ASC. However, the data distributions of the audio…

We propose a novel teacher-student framework to distill knowledge from multiple teachers trained on distinct datasets. Each teacher is first trained from scratch on its own dataset. Then, the teachers are combined into a joint architecture,…

The balance between high accuracy and high speed has always been a challenging task in semantic image segmentation. Compact segmentation networks are more widely used in the case of limited resources, while their performances are…

This paper proposes the DistillCSE framework, which performs contrastive learning under the self-training paradigm with knowledge distillation. The potential advantage of DistillCSE is its self-enhancing feature: using a base model to…

Acoustic scene classification is an automatic listening problem that aims to assign an audio recording to a pre-defined scene based on its audio data. Over the years (and in past editions of the DCASE) this problem has often been solved…

We demonstrate that in knowledge distillation for diffusion models, the teacher network's highly complex denoising process - stemming from its substantially larger capacity - poses a significant challenge for the student model to faithfully…

Although diffusion model has shown great potential for generating higher quality images than GANs, slow sampling speed hinders its wide application in practice. Progressive distillation is thus proposed for fast sampling by progressively…

Crossmodal knowledge distillation (KD) aims to enhance a unimodal student using a multimodal teacher model. In particular, when the teacher's modalities include the student's, additional complementary information can be exploited to improve…

Deploying deep learning models on resource-constrained edge devices remains a major challenge in smart agriculture due to the trade-off between computational efficiency and recognition accuracy. To address this challenge, this study…

We introduce Layered Self-Supervised Knowledge Distillation (LSSKD) framework for training compact deep learning models. Unlike traditional methods that rely on pre-trained teacher networks, our approach appends auxiliary classifiers to…

Various attention mechanisms are being widely applied to acoustic scene classification. However, we empirically found that the attention mechanism can excessively discard potentially valuable information, despite improving performance. We…

The ongoing biodiversity crisis, driven by factors such as land-use change and global warming, emphasizes the need for effective ecological monitoring methods. Acoustic monitoring of biodiversity has emerged as an important monitoring tool.…

3D point cloud semantic segmentation is one of the fundamental tasks for environmental understanding. Although significant progress has been made in recent years, the performance of classes with few examples or few points is still far from…

Sequential recommender systems (SRS) have become a research hotspot due to its power in modeling user dynamic interests and sequential behavioral patterns. To maximize model expressive ability, a default choice is to apply a larger and…
