Rethinking Dataset Distillation for Classification: Do Distilled Sets Outperform Coresets?

arXiv:2606. 18209v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dataset distillation (DD) has emerged as a prominent approach in data centric machine learning, aiming to synthesize compact training sets for efficient training by compressing the information in large datasets into a small number of synthetic samples.

Forget or Fine-tune? A Comparative Study of Machine Unlearning Strategies for Noisy Label Correction

The paper compares five machine unlearning (MU) methods—NegGrad, Fine‑Tuning (FT), Random Labeling (RL), SalUn, and MUNBa—on noisy‑label correction across CIFAR‑10, CIFAR‑100, and Food‑101N. Results show that the best MU strategy depends on the noise type: FT works well for most closed‑set noise, RL and SalUn are robust and nearly match retraining accuracy under instance‑dependent noise, while MUNBa excels only under extreme symmetric noise. In open‑set noise, retraining on the cleaned data actually hurts performance, indicating that approximating retraining is not suitable in that regime, yet all MU methods still achieve near‑retraining accuracy on Food‑101N with much lower runtime.
