We introduce the novel concept of $\\epsilon$-approximation of datasets, obtaining datasets which are much smaller than or are significant corruptions of the original training data while maintaining similar model performance. We introduce a meta-learning algorithm called Kernel Inducing Points (KIP) for obtaining such remarkable datasets, inspired by the recent developments in the correspondence between infinitely-wide neural networks and kernel ridge-regression (KRR). For KRR tasks, we demonstrate that KIP can compress datasets by one or two orders of magnitude, significantly improving previous dataset distillation and subset selection methods while obtaining state of the art results for MNIST and CIFAR-10 classification. Furthermore, our KIP-learned datasets are transferable to the training of finite-width neural networks even beyond the lazy-training regime, which leads to state of the art results for neural network dataset distillation with potential applications to privacy-preservation.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.00050v3","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2011.00050v3.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"dataset-meta-learning-from-kernel-ridge-1","repo_url":"https://github.com/Guang000/Awesome-Dataset-Distillation","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":{"status":"ok","spdx":"MIT"}}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"dataset-distillation","task_name":"Dataset Distillation"},{"task_slug":"meta-learning","task_name":"Meta-Learning"},{"task_slug":"regression-1","task_name":"regression"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"kip","method_name":"KIP"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[{"slug":"kip","name":"KIP","full_name":"Kernel Inducing Points"}],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":"https://app.syntology.ai/?focus=2011.00050","mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
