Single-Teacher View Augmentation: Enhancing Knowledge Distillation with Student-Guided Perturbations
Knowledge distillation (KD) typically relies on the fixed perspective of a single teacher, limiting the diversity of supervisory signals. While multi-teacher distillation addresses this by aggregating knowledge from multiple models, it incurs prohibitive computational and storage costs. To balance efficiency and diversity, recent research has focused on generating virtual views from a single teacher. However, existing methods face a trade-off: random perturbation approaches offer efficiency but lack controlled diversity, while structured augmentation methods require multi-stage training and incur linear parameter growth. We observe that this trade-off stems from a common design choice: us...
