• Abstract: Dataset distillation aims at synthesizing a dataset by a small number of artificially generated data items, which, when used as training data, reproduce or approximate a machine learning (ML) model as if it were trained on the entire original dataset. Consequently, data distillation methods are usually tied to a specific ML algorithm. While recent literature deals mainly with distillation of large collections of images in the context of neural network models, tabular data distillation is much less represented and mainly focused on a theoretical perspective. The current paper explores the potential of a simple distillation technique previously proposed in the context of Less-than-one shot learning. The main goal is to push further the performance of prototype-based soft-labels distillation in terms of classification accuracy, by integrating optimization steps in the distillation process. The analysis is performed on real-world data sets with various degrees of imbalance. Experimental studies trace the capability of the method to distill the data, but also the opportunity to act as an augmentation method, i.e. to generate new data that is able to increase model accuracy when used in conjunction with - as opposed to instead of - the original data.

  We propose to distill an entire dataset's knowledge into a few synthetic images. The idea is to synthesize a small number of synthetic data points that, when given to a learning algorithm as training data, result in a model approximating one trained on the original data. We present a new optimization algorithm that distills a large number of images into a few intermediate feature vectors in the generative model's latent space.

  Recent work on distilling BERT for classification and regression tasks shows strong performance using direct knowledge distillation. Alternatively, machine translation practitioners distill using pseudo-labeling, where a small model is trained on the translations of a larger model. A third, simpler approach is to'shrink and fine-tune' (SFT), which avoids any explicit distillation by copying parameters to a smaller student model and then fine-tuning.
