TLDR
This work shows that it can significantly improve the acoustic model of a heavily used commercial system by distilling the knowledge in an ensemble of models into a single model and introduces a new type of ensemble composed of one or more full models and many specialist models which learn to distinguish fine-grained classes that the full models confuse.Abstract:
A very simple way to improve the performance of almost any machine learning algorithm is to train many different models on the same data and then to average their predictions. Unfortunately, making predictions using a whole ensemble of models is cumbersome and may be too computationally expensive to allow deployment to a large number of users, especially if the individual models are large neural nets. Caruana and his collaborators have shown that it is possible to compress the knowledge in an ensemble into a single model which is much easier to deploy and we develop this approach further using a different compression technique. We achieve some surprising results on MNIST and we show that we can significantly improve the acoustic model of a heavily used commercial system by distilling the knowledge in an ensemble of models into a single model. We also introduce a new type of ensemble composed of one or more full models and many specialist models which learn to distinguish fine-grained classes that the full models confuse. Unlike a mixture of experts, these specialist models can be trained rapidly and in parallel.read more

Low-Shot Learning with Large-Scale Diffusion
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of inferring image labels from images when only a few annotated examples are available at training time is considered, which is referred to as low-shot learning, where a standard approach is to retrain the last few layers of a CNN learned on separate classes for which training examples are abundant.

Knowledge-Guided Deep Fractal Neural Networks for Human Pose Estimation
TL;DR: This work uses the stacked hourglass design and inception-resnet module to construct a fractal network to regress human pose images into heatmaps with no explicit graphical modeling and achieves state-of-the-art performance on both datasets.

A Curriculum Domain Adaptation Approach to the Semantic Segmentation of Urban Scenes
TL;DR: In this article, a curriculum-style learning approach is proposed to minimize the domain gap in urban scene semantic segmentation by solving easy tasks first to infer necessary properties about the target domain; in particular, the first task is to learn global label distributions over images and local distributions over landmark superpixels.

ImageNet Classification with Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
TL;DR: The state-of-the-art performance of CNNs was achieved by Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (DCNNs) as discussed by the authors, which consists of five convolutional layers, some of which are followed by max-pooling layers, and three fully-connected layers with a final 1000-way softmax.

Improving neural networks by preventing co-adaptation of feature detectors
TL;DR: The authors randomly omits half of the feature detectors on each training case to prevent complex co-adaptations in which a feature detector is only helpful in the context of several other specific feature detectors.
