STARS: Spike Tail-Aware Relational Synthesis for ANN-to-SNN Data-Free Knowledge Distillation
Researchers introduce STARS, a data-free knowledge distillation method that improves the transfer of learning from artificial neural networks (ANNs) to spiking neural networks (SNNs) without access to original training data. The technique combines batch normalization matching with relational consistency and threshold-aware regularization, achieving significant accuracy improvements across standard benchmarks.
