Knowledge distillation refers to the process of training a compact student network to achieve better accuracy by learning from a high capacity teacher network. Most of the existing knowledge distillation methods direct the student to follow…

Knowledge distillation (KD) represents a vital mechanism to transfer expertise from complex teacher networks to efficient student models. However, in decentralized or secure AI ecosystems, privacy regulations and proprietary interests often…

Deep learning-based image compression has made great progresses recently. However, many leading schemes use serial context-adaptive entropy model to improve the rate-distortion (R-D) performance, which is very slow. In addition, the…

Data-free knowledge distillation (DFKD) has emerged as a pivotal technique in the domain of model compression, substantially reducing the dependency on the original training data. Nonetheless, conventional DFKD methods that employ…

Leveraging the capabilities of Knowledge Distillation (KD) strategies, we devise a strategy to fight the recent retraction of face recognition datasets. Given a pretrained Teacher model trained on a real dataset, we show that carefully…

Masked image modeling (MIM) learns representations with remarkably good fine-tuning performances, overshadowing previous prevalent pre-training approaches such as image classification, instance contrastive learning, and image-text…

This paper is concerned with self-supervised learning for small models. The problem is motivated by our empirical studies that while the widely used contrastive self-supervised learning method has shown great progress on large model…

Few-shot knowledge distillation recently emerged as a viable approach to harness the knowledge of large-scale pre-trained models, using limited data and computational resources. In this paper, we propose a novel few-shot feature…

Knowledge distillation constitutes a simple yet effective way to improve the performance of a compact student network by exploiting the knowledge of a more powerful teacher. Nevertheless, the knowledge distillation literature remains…

Transformer encoder with connectionist temporal classification (CTC) framework is widely used for automatic speech recognition (ASR). However, knowledge distillation (KD) for ASR displays a problem of disagreement between teacher-student…

Knowledge distillation (KD) has become a widely used technique in the field of model compression, which aims to transfer knowledge from a large teacher model to a lightweight student model for efficient network development. In addition to…

In this paper we revisit the efficacy of knowledge distillation as a function matching and metric learning problem. In doing so we verify three important design decisions, namely the normalisation, soft maximum function, and projection…

Vision transformers (ViTs) have gained popularity recently. Even without customized image operators such as convolutions, ViTs can yield competitive performance when properly trained on massive data. However, the computational overhead of…

Automated leaf disease classification is critical for early disease detection in resource-constrained field environments. Vision Transformers (ViTs) provide strong representation capability by modeling long-range dependencies and…

Data-Free Knowledge Distillation (KD) allows knowledge transfer from a trained neural network (teacher) to a more compact one (student) in the absence of original training data. Existing works use a validation set to monitor the accuracy of…

Foundation models deliver strong perception but are often too computationally heavy to deploy, and adapting them typically requires costly annotations. We introduce a semi-supervised knowledge distillation (SSKD) framework that compresses…

With ever growing scale of neural models, knowledge distillation (KD) attracts more attention as a prominent tool for neural model compression. However, there are counter intuitive observations in the literature showing some challenging…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) is a strategy for the definition of a set of transferability gangways to improve the efficiency of Convolutional Neural Networks. Feature-based Knowledge Distillation is a subfield of KD that relies on…
