D3S2: Diffusion-Guided Dataset Distillation for Semantic Segmentation
Quick summary
arXiv:2605.25022v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Dataset distillation (DD) aims to compress large-scale datasets into compact synthetic sets while preserving training efficacy. However, existing studies mainly focus on image classification, leaving dense prediction tasks such as semantic segmentation largely underexplored. In this work, we identify three key challenges for segmentation DD: (i) long-tailed class imbalance, (ii) the need for strict pixel-wise alignment between images and dense labels, and (iii) the high computational cost of optimizing high-resolution data with complex
