Large language models (LLMs) achieve strong performance across many tasks, but their high computational cost limits deployment in resource-constrained environments. Knowledge Distillation (KD) offers a practical solution by transferring knowledge from a teacher model of a larger size to a smaller student model.
arXiv:2607. 23346v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern deep neural networks are potent catalysts for scientific and industrial impact, yet excessive parameter counts impede deployment in low-compute settings such as hospital equipment and energy infrastructure.

Cross-modal knowledge distillation (CMKD) studies how a (large) teacher model trained on one type of data (e. g.
