• Abstract: While deep learning techniques have proven successful in image-related tasks, the exponentially increased data storage and computation costs become a significant challenge. Dataset distillation addresses these challenges by synthesizing only a few images for each class that encapsulate all essential information. Most current methods focus on matching. The problems lie in the synthetic images not being human-readable and the dataset performance being insufficient for downstream learning tasks. Moreover, the distillation time can quickly get out of bounds when the number of synthetic images per class increases even slightly. To address this, we train a class conditional latent diffusion model capable of generating realistic synthetic images with labels. The sampling time can be reduced to several tens of images per seconds. We demonstrate that models can be effectively trained using only a small set of synthetic images and evaluated on a large real test set. Our approach achieved rank \(1\) in The First Dataset Distillation Challenge at ECCV 2024 on the CIFAR100 and TinyImageNet datasets.

  We show that pre-training is effective even with minimal synthetic images. We find that a substantial reduction of synthetic images from 1k to 1 can even lead to an increase in pre-training performance. We extend our method from synthetic images to real images to see if a single real image can show similar pre-training effect.

  We focus on training smaller variants of the image encoder, which suffices for efficient zero-shot classification. The use of synthetic data has shown promise in distilling representations from larger teachers, resulting in strong few-shot and linear probe performance. We find that this approach surprisingly fails in true zero-shot settings when using contrastive losses.

  We argue that using just one synthetic subset for distillation will not yield optimal generalization performance. PDD synthesizes multiple small sets of synthetic images, each conditioned on the previous sets, and trains the model on the cumulative union of these subsets. Our experiments show that PDD can effectively improve the performance of existing dataset distillation methods by up to 4.3%.

  Researchers have long tried to minimize training costs in deep learning by maintaining strong generalization across diverse datasets. Emerging research on dataset aims to reduce training costs by creating a small synthetic set that contains the information of a larger real dataset. However, the synthetic data generated by previous methods are not guaranteed to distribute and discriminate as well as the original training data.

  We analyze the relationship between the training effect of synthetic data and the synthetic data distribution induced by prompts.
