Abstract
A system and method is provided for enhancing an image using a machine learning model. The method includes: obtaining image data; and generating enhanced image data representing an enhanced image based on performing inference for the machine learning model. The machine learning model has an inference encoder configured to generate latent image feature data based on the image data and at least one decoder configured to receive the latent image feature data from the inference encoder. Knowledge is imparted into the inference encoder from one or more teacher encoders as a result of a knowledge transfer training process. The knowledge transfer training process includes: training each of the one or more teacher encoders as a part of a teacher network configured to perform an image reconstruction task based on learned knowledge obtained by the teacher encoder, and transferring the learned knowledge of the teacher encoder to the inference encoder.
