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 between 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.

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.
Zero-shot image classification has made promising progress by training the aligned image and text encoders. The goal of this work is to advance zero-shot object detection, which aims to detect novel objects without bounding box nor mask annotations.
We propose ViLD, a training method via Vision and Language knowledge Distillation. We distill the knowledge from a pre-trained zero-shot image classification model (e.g., CLIP) into a two-stage detector (e.g., Mask R-CNN). Our method aligns the region embeddings in the detector to the text and image embeddings inferred by the pre-trained model. We use the text embeddings as the detection classifier, obtained by feeding category names into the pre-trained text encoder. We then minimize the distance between the region embeddings and image embeddings, obtained by feeding region proposals into the pre-trained image encoder. During inference, we include text embeddings of novel categories into the detection classifier for zero-shot detection. We benchmark the performance on LVIS dataset by holding out all rare categories as novel categories. ViLD obtains 16.1 mask AP$_r$ with a Mask R-CNN (ResNet-50 FPN) for zero-shot detection, outperforming the supervised counterpart by 3.8. The model can directly transfer to other datasets, achieving 72.2 AP$_{50}$, 36.6 AP and 11.8 AP on PASCAL VOC, COCO and Objects365, respectively.
Deep learning models achieve strong performance for radiology image classification, but their practical application is bottlenecked by the need for large labeled training datasets. Semi-supervised learning (SSL) approaches leverage small labeled data
sets alongside larger unlabeled datasets and offer potential for reducing labeling cost. In this work, we introduce NoTeacher, a novel consistency-based SSL framework which incorporates probabilistic graphical models. Unlike Mean Teacher which maintains a teacher network updated via a temporal ensemble, NoTeacher employs two independent networks, thereby eliminating the need for a teacher network. We demonstrate how NoTeacher can be customized to handle a range of challenges in radiology image classification. Specifically, we describe adaptations for scenarios with 2D and 3D inputs, uni and multi-label classification, and class distribution mismatch between labeled and unlabeled portions of the training data. In realistic empirical evaluations on three public benchmark datasets spanning the workhorse modalities of radiology (X-Ray, CT, MRI), we show that NoTeacher achieves over 90-95% of the fully supervised AUROC with less than 5-15% labeling budget. Further, NoTeacher outperforms established SSL methods with minimal hyperparameter tuning, and has implications as a principled and practical option for semisupervised learning in radiology applications.
