UniDFKD: A Unified Semantic Prior Framework for Architecture-Agnostic Data-Free Knowledge Distillation

Data-Free Knowledge Distillation (DFKD) transfers knowledge from a pretrained teacher model to a compact student model by synthesizing semantically informative data, eliminating the need for access to the original training dataset. Existing DFKD methods rely heavily on architecture-specific statistical priors (e.g., Batch Normalization statistics) to guide data synthesis, however, such architecture-dependent priors are often absent in modern architectures such as Vision Transformers (ViTs), resu
