Recently, deep learning has been adopted to the glaucoma classification task with performance comparable to that of human experts. However, a well trained deep learning model demands a large quantity of properly labeled data, which is relatively expensive since the accurate labeling of glaucoma requires years of specialist training. In order to alleviate this problem, we propose a glaucoma classification framework which takes advantage of not only the properly labeled images, but also undiagnosed images without glaucoma labels. To be more specific, the proposed framework is adapted from the teacher-student-learning paradigm. The teacher model encodes the wrapped information of undiagnosed images to a latent feature space, meanwhile the student model learns from the teacher through knowledge transfer to improve the glaucoma classification. For the model training procedure, we propose a novel training strategy that simulates the real-world teaching practice named as Learning To Teach with Knowledge Transfer (L2T-KT), and establish a Quiz Pool as the teachers optimization target. Experiments show that the proposed framework is able to utilize the undiagnosed data effectively to improve the glaucoma prediction performance.

Recently, segmentation neural networks have been significantly improved by demonstrating very promising accuracies on public benchmarks. However, these models are very heavy and generally suffer from low inference speed, which limits their application scenarios in practice. Meanwhile, existing fast segmentation models usually fail to obtain satisfactory segmentation accuracies on public benchmarks. In this paper, we propose a teacher-student learning framework that transfers the knowledge gained by a heavy and better performed segmentation network (i.e. teacher) to guide the learning of fast segmentation networks (i.e. student). Specifically, both zero-order and first-order knowledge depicted in the fine annotated images and unlabeled auxiliary data are transferred to regularize our student learning. The proposed method can improve existing fast segmentation models without incurring extra computational overhead, so it can still process images with the same fast speed. Extensive experiments on the Pascal Context, Cityscape and VOC 2012 datasets demonstrate that the proposed teacher-student learning framework is able to significantly boost the performance of student network.
Acoustic scene classification identifies an input segment into one of the pre-defined classes using spectral information. The spectral information of acoustic scenes may not be mutually exclusive due to common acoustic properties across different classes, such as babble noises included in both airports and shopping malls. However, conventional training procedure based on one-hot labels does not consider the similarities between different acoustic scenes. We exploit teacher-student learning with the purpose to derive soft-labels that consider common acoustic properties among different acoustic scenes. In teacher-student learning, the teacher network produces soft-labels, based on which the student network is trained. We investigate various methods to extract soft-labels that better represent similarities across different scenes. Such attempts include extracting soft-labels from multiple audio segments that are defined as an identical acoustic scene. Experimental results demonstrate the potential of our approach, showing a classification accuracy of 77.36 % on the DCASE 2018 task 1 validation set.
Purpose: Segmentation of surgical instruments in endoscopic videos is essential for automated surgical scene understanding and process modeling. However, relying on fully supervised deep learning for this task is challenging because manual annotation occupies valuable time of the clinical experts. Methods: We introduce a teacher-student learning approach that learns jointly from annotated simulation data and unlabeled real data to tackle the erroneous learning problem of the current consistency-based unsupervised domain adaptation framework. Results: Empirical results on three datasets highlight the effectiveness of the proposed framework over current approaches for the endoscopic instrument segmentation task. Additionally, we provide analysis of major factors affecting the performance on all datasets to highlight the strengths and failure modes of our approach. Conclusion: We show that our proposed approach can successfully exploit the unlabeled real endoscopic video frames and improve generalization performance over pure simulation-based training and the previous state-of-the-art. This takes us one step closer to effective segmentation of surgical tools in the annotation scarce setting.
A unique cognitive capability of humans consists in their ability to acquire new knowledge and skills from a sequence of experiences. Meanwhile, artificial intelligence systems are good at learning only the last given task without being able to remember the databases learnt in the past. We propose a novel lifelong learning methodology by employing a Teacher-Student network framework. While the Student module is trained with a new given database, the Teacher module would remind the Student about the information learnt in the past. The Teacher, implemented by a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), is trained to preserve and replay past knowledge corresponding to the probabilistic representations of previously learn databases. Meanwhile, the Student module is implemented by a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) which infers its latent variable representation from both the output of the Teacher module as well as from the newly available database. Moreover, the Student module is trained to capture both continuous and discrete underlying data representations across different domains. The proposed lifelong learning framework is applied in supervised, semi-supervised and unsupervised training. The code is available~: url{https://github.com/dtuzi123/Lifelong-Teacher-Student-Network-Learning}
With the supervision from source domain only in class-level, existing unsupervised domain adaptation (UDA) methods mainly learn the domain-invariant representations from a shared feature extractor, which causes the source-bias problem. This paper proposes an unsupervised domain adaptation approach with Teacher-Student Competition (TSC). In particular, a student network is introduced to learn the target-specific feature space, and we design a novel competition mechanism to select more credible pseudo-labels for the training of student network. We introduce a teacher network with the structure of existing conventional UDA method, and both teacher and student networks compete to provide target pseudo-labels to constrain every target samples training in student network. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed TSC framework significantly outperforms the state-of-the-art domain adaptation methods on Office-31 and ImageCLEF-DA benchmarks.
