A new study published on arXiv investigates the effectiveness of knowledge distillation (KD) in ResNet models for image classification on CIFAR-10. The research found that a student model's capacity significantly impacts distillation gains, with larger students benefiting more. The study also highlighted the critical importance of implementation correctness, noting that a bug in gradient clipping had previously suppressed Feature-KD performance. Furthermore, ensuring the architecture is aware of input resolution is presented as a prerequisite for effective distillation. AI
