• Abstract summary: We propose a device-cloud collaborative controlled learning framework, called DC-CCL. DC-CCL splits the base model into two submodels, one large submodel for learning from the cloud-side samples and the other small submodel for learning from the device-side samples and performing device-cloud knowledge fusion.

• Abstract: Many large vision models have been deployed on the cloud for real-time services. Meanwhile, fresh samples are continuously generated on the served mobile device. How to leverage the device-side samples to improve the cloud-side large model becomes a practical requirement, but falls into the dilemma of no raw sample up-link and no large model down-link. Specifically, the user may opt out of sharing raw samples with the cloud due to the concern of privacy or communication overhead, while the size of some large vision models far exceeds the mobile device's runtime capacity. In this work, we propose a device-cloud collaborative controlled learning framework, called DC-CCL, enabling a cloud-side large vision model that cannot be directly deployed on the mobile device to still benefit from the device-side local samples. In particular, DC-CCL vertically splits the base model into two submodels, one large submodel for learning from the cloud-side samples and the other small submodel for learning from the device-side samples and performing device-cloud knowledge fusion. Nevertheless, on-device training of the small submodel requires the output of the cloud-side large submodel to compute the desired gradients. DC-CCL thus introduces a light-weight model to mimic the large cloud-side submodel with knowledge distillation, which can be offloaded to the mobile device to control its small submodel's optimization direction. Given the decoupling nature of two submodels in collaborative learning, DC-CCL also allows the cloud to take a pre-trained model and the mobile device to take another model with a different backbone architecture.

  We design a hybrid edge-cloud solution that leverages the efficiency of smaller models for local processing while deferring to larger, more accurate cloud-based models when necessary. Specifically, we propose a novel unsupervised data generation method, Dual-Model Distillation (DMD), to train a lightweight switcher model that can predict when the edge model's output is uncertain. Experimental results on the action classification task show that our framework not only requires less computational overhead, but also improves accuracy compared to using a large model alone.

The MetaStabilizer aims to reduce the oscillation of the MetaGenerator, accelerate the convergence and improve the model performance during both training and inference.
