One-step diffusion-based image super-resolution (OSDSR) models are showing increasingly superior performance nowadays. However, although their denoising steps are reduced to one and they can be quantized to 8-bit to reduce the costs…

Modern deployment often requires trading accuracy for efficiency under tight CPU and memory constraints, yet common compression proxies such as parameter count or FLOPs do not reliably predict wall-clock inference time. In particular,…

Traditional object detectors are ill-equipped for incremental learning. However, fine-tuning directly on a well-trained detection model with only new data will lead to catastrophic forgetting. Knowledge distillation is a flexible way to…

Recently, various intermediate layer distillation (ILD) objectives have been shown to improve compression of BERT models via Knowledge Distillation (KD). However, a comprehensive evaluation of the objectives in both task-specific and…

Compressing vision-language models for on-device deployment is increasingly important in clinical settings, but knowledge distillation (KD) degrades sharply when the teacher-student capacity gap spans an order of magnitude or more. We argue…

Deep learning architectures have shown remarkable results in scene understanding problems, however they exhibit a critical drop of performances when they are required to learn incrementally new tasks without forgetting old ones. This…

Traditional knowledge distillation (KD) relies on a proficient teacher trained on the target task, which is not always available. In this setting, cross-task distillation can be used, enabling the use of any teacher model trained on a…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) for Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is extensively studied as a way to boost the performance of a small model. Recently, Vision Transformer (ViT) has achieved great success on many computer vision tasks and KD…

We investigate cross-quality knowledge distillation (CQKD), a knowledge distillation method where knowledge from a teacher network trained with full-resolution images is transferred to a student network that takes as input low-resolution…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) aims to distill the knowledge of a cumbersome teacher model into a lightweight student model. Its success is generally attributed to the privileged information on similarities among categories provided by the…

Network quantization allows inference to be conducted using low-precision arithmetic for improved inference efficiency of deep neural networks on edge devices. However, designing aggressively low-bit (e.g., 2-bit) quantization schemes on…

Recent advancements in diffusion models, particularly the architectural transformation from UNet-based models to Diffusion Transformers (DiTs), significantly improve the quality and scalability of image and video generation. However,…

Deep neural models in recent years have been successful in almost every field, including extremely complex problem statements. However, these models are huge in size, with millions (and even billions) of parameters, thus demanding more…

In this paper, we propose an intra-set and inter-set recursive fusion framework with time-frequency calibrated knowledge distillation (I$^2$SRF-TFCKD) for SE. Different from previous distillation strategies for SE, the proposed framework…

Knowledge Distillation (KD) has made remarkable progress in the last few years and become a popular paradigm for model compression and knowledge transfer. However, almost all existing KD algorithms are data-driven, i.e., relying on a large…

Knowledge distillation (KD) has emerged as a promising technique in deep learning, typically employed to enhance a compact student network through learning from their high-performance but more complex teacher variant. When applied in the…

Typical technique in knowledge distillation (KD) is regularizing the learning of a limited capacity model (student) by pushing its responses to match a powerful model's (teacher). Albeit useful especially in the penultimate layer and…

Recent studies pointed out that knowledge distillation (KD) suffers from two degradation problems, the teacher-student gap and the incompatibility with strong data augmentations, making it not applicable to training state-of-the-art models,…

As edge devices become prevalent, deploying Deep Neural Networks (DNN) on edge devices has become a critical issue. However, DNN requires a high computational resource which is rarely available for edge devices. To handle this, we propose a…
