The paper investigates the efficiency properties of data in machine learning from both optimization and generalization perspectives. It reveals that using a publicly available, task-agnostic model as a prior model can produce efficient data, accelerating representation learning. The authors propose the Representation Learning Accelerator (ReLA) to promote the formation and utilization of efficient data. Experimental results show that utilizing ReLA reduces computational costs by 50% while maintaining accuracy on ImageNet-1K.

The paper explores how data affects machine learning efficiency. It finds that using a prior model, like ResNet-18 pre-trained on CIFAR-10, can help train ResNet-50 on ImageNet-1K faster and cheaper without sacrificing accuracy. This is important because it could make AI more efficient and cost-effective.
