Knowledge distillation (KD) enables a compact student model to learn from a powerful teacher and has become an effective paradigm for model compression. The emergence of diverse model architectures has extended KD from homogeneous to heterogeneous settings.
arXiv:2608. 00129v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge distillation (KD) is a widely utilized technique for transferring knowledge from a large model (the teacher) to a smaller model (the student).
