Beyond Dark Knowledge: Mixup-Based Distillation for Reliable Predictions

arXiv:2606. 12171v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Knowledge Distillation (KD) and mixup have proven effective at inducing smoothness in class boundaries; KD captures inherent class relationships in probability distributions, and mixup enforces them through convex combinations of inputs.

Single-Channel Tissue Segmentation via Cross-Modal Distillation from Foundation Models

arXiv:2606. 00928v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multiplexed fluorescence microscopy improves tissue segmentation by providing complementary channels including nuclear (DAPI) and membrane (E-cadherin), that together encode richer spatial context than single-channel imaging alone.

Self-Supervised Visual On-Policy Distillation

arXiv:2608. 14144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Visual on-policy distillation relies heavily on an informative teacher-student asymmetry, through either a larger, stronger teacher or privileged supervision, such as reference answers or ground-truth regions of interest.

Stable On-Policy Distillation through Adaptive Target Reformulation

arXiv:2601. 07155v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Knowledge distillation (KD) is a widely adopted technique for transferring knowledge from large language models to smaller student models; however, conventional supervised KD often suffers from a distribution mismatch between training and inference.
