In recent years, Siamese network based trackers have significantly advanced the state-of-the-art in real-time tracking. However, state-of-the-art Siamese trackers suffer from high memory cost which restricts their applicability in mobile applications having strict constraints on memory budget. To address this issue, we propose a novel distilled Siamese tracking framework to learn small, fast yet accurate trackers (students), which capture critical knowledge from large Siamese trackers (teachers) by a teacher-students knowledge distillation model. This model is intuitively inspired by a one-teacher vs multi-students learning mechanism, which is the most usual teaching method in the school. In particular, it contains a single teacher-student distillation model and a student-student knowledge sharing mechanism. The first one is designed by a tracking-specific distillation strategy to transfer knowledge from the teacher to students. The later is utilized for mutual learning between students to enable an in-depth knowledge understanding. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to investigate knowledge distillation for Siamese trackers and propose a distilled Siamese tracking framework. We demonstrate the generality and effectiveness of our framework by conducting a theoretical analysis and extensive empirical evaluations on several popular Siamese trackers. The results on five tracking benchmarks clearly show that the proposed distilled trackers achieve compression rates up to 18$times$ and frame-rates of $265$ FPS with speedups of 3$times$, while obtaining similar or even slightly improved tracking accuracy.

Knowledge distillation~(KD) is an effective learning paradigm for improving the performance of lightweight student networks by utilizing additional supervision knowledge distilled from teacher networks. Most pioneering studies either learn from only
a single teacher in their distillation learning methods, neglecting the potential that a student can learn from multiple teachers simultaneously, or simply treat each teacher to be equally important, unable to reveal the different importance of teachers for specific examples. To bridge this gap, we propose a novel adaptive multi-teacher multi-level knowledge distillation learning framework~(AMTML-KD), which consists two novel insights: (i) associating each teacher with a latent representation to adaptively learn instance-level teacher importance weights which are leveraged for acquiring integrated soft-targets~(high-level knowledge) and (ii) enabling the intermediate-level hints~(intermediate-level knowledge) to be gathered from multiple teachers by the proposed multi-group hint strategy. As such, a student model can learn multi-level knowledge from multiple teachers through AMTML-KD. Extensive results on publicly available datasets demonstrate the proposed learning framework ensures student to achieve improved performance than strong competitors.
Knowledge Distillation (KD) is an effective framework for compressing deep learning models, realized by a student-teacher paradigm requiring small student networks to mimic the soft target generated by well-trained teachers. However, the teachers are
commonly assumed to be complex and need to be trained on the same datasets as students. This leads to a time-consuming training process. The recent study shows vanilla KD plays a similar role as label smoothing and develops teacher-free KD, being efficient and mitigating the issue of learning from heavy teachers. But because teacher-free KD relies on manually-crafted output distributions kept the same for all data instances belonging to the same class, its flexibility and performance are relatively limited. To address the above issues, this paper proposes en efficient knowledge distillation learning framework LW-KD, short for lightweight knowledge distillation. It firstly trains a lightweight teacher network on a synthesized simple dataset, with an adjustable class number equal to that of a target dataset. The teacher then generates soft target whereby an enhanced KD loss could guide student learning, which is a combination of KD loss and adversarial loss for making student output indistinguishable from the output of the teacher. Experiments on several public datasets with different modalities demonstrate LWKD is effective and efficient, showing the rationality of its main design principles.
There is a growing discrepancy in computer vision between large-scale models that achieve state-of-the-art performance and models that are affordable in practical applications. In this paper we address this issue and significantly bridge the gap betw
een these two types of models. Throughout our empirical investigation we do not aim to necessarily propose a new method, but strive to identify a robust and effective recipe for making state-of-the-art large scale models affordable in practice. We demonstrate that, when performed correctly, knowledge distillation can be a powerful tool for reducing the size of large models without compromising their performance. In particular, we uncover that there are certain implicit design choices, which may drastically affect the effectiveness of distillation. Our key contribution is the explicit identification of these design choices, which were not previously articulated in the literature. We back up our findings by a comprehensive empirical study, demonstrate compelling results on a wide range of vision datasets and, in particular, obtain a state-of-the-art ResNet-50 model for ImageNet, which achieves 82.8% top-1 accuracy.
Recently, the majority of visual trackers adopt Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as their backbone to achieve high tracking accuracy. However, less attention has been paid to the potential adversarial threats brought by CNN, including Siamese netwo
rk. In this paper, we first analyze the existing vulnerabilities in Siamese trackers and propose the requirements for a successful adversarial attack. On this basis, we formulate the adversarial generation problem and propose an end-to-end pipeline to generate a perturbed texture map for the 3D object that causes the trackers to fail. Finally, we conduct thorough experiments to verify the effectiveness of our algorithm. Experiment results show that adversarial examples generated by our algorithm can successfully lower the tracking accuracy of victim trackers and even make them drift off. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to generate 3D adversarial examples on visual trackers.
In natural language processing (NLP) tasks, slow inference speed and huge footprints in GPU usage remain the bottleneck of applying pre-trained deep models in production. As a popular method for model compression, knowledge distillation transfers kno
wledge from one or multiple large (teacher) models to a small (student) model. When multiple teacher models are available in distillation, the state-of-the-art methods assign a fixed weight to a teacher model in the whole distillation. Furthermore, most of the existing methods allocate an equal weight to every teacher model. In this paper, we observe that, due to the complexity of training examples and the differences in student model capability, learning differentially from teacher models can lead to better performance of student models distilled. We systematically develop a reinforced method to dynamically assign weights to teacher models for different training instances and optimize the performance of student model. Our extensive experimental results on several NLP tasks clearly verify the feasibility and effectiveness of our approach.
