Abstract
Disclosed solutions for improved machine learning (ML) employ knowledge balancing self-distillation with adaptive mutual information (AMI). Examples include: for a neural network (NN) having a plurality of modules, determining a task objective for at least a final module of the plurality of modules; for the NN, determining a balancing objective using at least an output of the final module and an output of a first intermediate module of the plurality of modules; determining an overall objective, wherein determining the overall objective comprises combining the task objective with the balancing objective; and adjusting weights of the NN to minimize the overall objective. Balancing information may combine mutual information (between an intermediate module output and the output of the final module) with self-information (for the intermediate module output) to produce AMI. Adjusting weights of the NN during training, using the AMI, results in knowledge balancing self-distillation.
