• Abstract: Typically, the significant efficiency can be achieved by deploying different edge AI models in various real world scenarios while a few large models manage those edge AI models remotely from cloud servers. However, customizing edge AI models for each user's specific application or extending current models to new application scenarios remains a challenge. Inappropriate local training or fine tuning of edge AI models by users can lead to model malfunction, potentially resulting in legal issues for the manufacturer. To address aforementioned issues, this paper proposes an innovative framework called "DiReD", which involves knowledge DIstillation & REverse DIstillation. In the initial step, an edge AI model is trained with presumed data and a KD process using the cloud AI model in the upper management cloud server. This edge AI model is then dispatched to edge AI devices solely for inference in the user's application scenario. When the user needs to update the edge AI model to better fit the actual scenario, the reverse distillation (RD) process is employed to extract the knowledge: the difference between user preferences and the manufacturer's presumptions from the edge AI model using the user's exclusive data. Only the extracted knowledge is reported back to the upper management cloud server to update the cloud AI model, thus protecting user privacy by not using any exclusive data. The updated cloud AI can then update the edge AI model with the extended knowledge. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed "DiReDi" framework allows the manufacturer to update the user model by learning new knowledge from the user's actual scenario with private data. The initial redundant knowledge is reduced since the retraining emphasizes user private data.

  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 framework employs a novel multi-scale perception technology to read user's posture, which is difficult to describe accurately in words, and transmits it to the AIGC model as skeleton images. Since the production process imposes the user's posture as a constraint on the AIGC model, it makes the generated content more aligned with the user's requirements.
