Knowledge method to better vision -language models

Large machine learning models based on the transformer architecture have recently demonstrated extraordinary results about the range of vision and language tasks. But so large models are often too slow for real -time use, so practical systems are often dependent on knowledgeillation to distill large models’ knowledge to slimmer, faster models. The defining characteristic of … Read more
