Codebook-Guided Cross-Modal Knowledge Distillation for Structurally Heterogeneous Features
Quick summary
arXiv:2609.37243v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Cross-modal knowledge distillation transfers knowledge from a teacher modality to a student modality. Existing feature-level alignment methods typically assume that teacher and student features reside in structurally alignable representation spaces. However, this assumption does not hold when cross-modal features are structurally heterogeneous and lack clear unit-level correspondence, such as 2D spatial visual grids and 1D temporal audio sequences, thereby limiting the applicability of feature-level alignment. To address this challenge, we prop
