AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing data augmentation methods cannot effectively expand suitable samples during knowledge distillation, resulting in poor training performance of student models.

Method used

By iteratively modifying samples based on the decision boundary of the teacher model, boundary samples suitable for knowledge distillation are generated. The DeepFool algorithm is used for adversarial attacks, and the sample that is furthest away from other samples is selected as the base sample for the next round of iteration.

Benefits of technology

It improves the classification accuracy of student models, fully utilizes the knowledge transfer efficiency of teacher models, and is suitable for model deployment on devices with weak computing power.

Abstract

The application discloses a boundary sample data enhancement method and device for knowledge distillation and a computer storage medium. The method comprises the following steps: before knowledge distillation is performed, the output of a teacher model is used to modify samples in each original data set along the decision boundary of the teacher model step by step, and a plurality of boundary samples suitable for knowledge distillation are expanded. In each iteration, the original sample or each sample modified in the last iteration is used as a basic sample, the approximate tangent plane of the decision boundary near the sample is calculated by using the output of the teacher model, and the sample is modified along multiple directions on the tangent plane; then, the modified sample is modified to be located near the boundary; finally, a plurality of samples farthest from other basic samples are selected as the result of the modification in the round and the basic samples for the next iteration. The application can meet the demand for data enhancement in current image classifier knowledge distillation.
