Robust Trajectory Distillation: Hybrid Reweighting Meets Teacher-Inspired Targets

Kaifeng Chen, Lechao Cheng, Jiyang Li +6

Dataset distillation (DD) condenses large corpora into compact, information-rich subsets for efficient training and reuse. However, under noisy supervision, DD risks condensing cor…

Global-to-Local or Local-to-Global? Enhancing Image Retrieval with Efficient Local Search and Effective Global Re-ranking

Dror Aiger, Bingyi Cao, Kaifeng Chen +1

The dominant paradigm in image retrieval systems today is to search large databases using global image features, and re-rank those initial results with local image feature matching…

Infusing fine-grained visual knowledge to Vision-Language Models

Nikolaos-Antonios Ypsilantis, Kaifeng Chen, André Araujo +1

Large-scale contrastive pre-training produces powerful Vision-and-Language Models (VLMs) capable of generating representations (embeddings) effective for a wide variety of visual a…

Learning Vision from Models Rivals Learning Vision from Data

Yonglong Tian, Lijie Fan, Kaifeng Chen +3

We introduce SynCLR, a novel approach for learning visual representations exclusively from synthetic images and synthetic captions, without any real data. We synthesize a large dat…

Towards Universal Image Embeddings: A Large-Scale Dataset and Challenge for Generic Image Representations

Nikolaos-Antonios Ypsilantis, Kaifeng Chen, Bingyi Cao +7

Fine-grained and instance-level recognition methods are commonly trained and evaluated on specific domains, in a model per domain scenario. Such an approach, however, is impractica…
