Compressing deep learning models: distillation (Ep.104‪)‬ Data Science at Home

Using large deep learning models on limited hardware or edge devices is definitely prohibitive. There are methods to compress large models by orders of magnitude and maintain similar accuracy during inference.
In this episode I explain one of the first methods: knowledge distillation
