Our paper titled "Averager Student: Distillation from Undistillable Teacher" is accepted by Tiny Papers @ ICLR 2023.
Our paper titled "Averager Student: Distillation from Undistillable Teacher" is accepted by Tiny Papers @ ICLR 2023. In this paper, with the aim of contributing to solutions for model intellectual property (IP) protection, a novel approach is proposed, which improves the distillation from an undistillable teacher whose goal is make the distillation difficult for students, with the purpose of model protection.
