Researchers have developed a new framework called Teacher-Guided Learning NSGA-II (TGL-NSGA-II) to improve the efficiency of evolutionary optimization for Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML) neural architecture search. This method uses a pretrained teacher model to stratify candidate samples by difficulty and class, allowing for a more focused and efficient evaluation process. By employing a capped knowledge-distillation procedure and a Gaussian-process surrogate, TGL-NSGA-II significantly reduces evaluation variance and achieves faster search times compared to traditional methods, demonstrating improved performance on keyword spotting and bird-call classification tasks.
