The common self-supervised pre-training practice requires collecting massive unlabeled data together and then trains a representation model, dubbed textbf{joint training}. However, in real-world scenarios where data are collected in a streaming fashion, the joint training scheme is usually storage-heavy and time-consuming. A more efficient alternative is to train a model continually with streaming data, dubbed textbf{sequential training}. Nevertheless, it is unclear how well sequential self-supervised pre-training performs with streaming data. In this paper, we conduct thorough experiments to investigate self-supervised pre-training with streaming data. Specifically, we evaluate the transfer performance of sequential self-supervised pre-training with four different data sequences on three different downstream tasks and make comparisons with joint self-supervised pre-training. Surprisingly, we find sequential self-supervised learning exhibits almost the same performance as the joint training when the distribution shifts within streaming data are mild. Even for data sequences with large distribution shifts, sequential self-supervised training with simple techniques, e.g., parameter regularization or data replay, still performs comparably to joint training. Based on our findings, we recommend using sequential self-supervised training as a textbf{more efficient yet performance-competitive} representation learning practice for real-world applications.

Recent work has demonstrated that neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial examples. To escape from the predicament, many works try to harden the model in various ways, in which adversarial training is an effective way which learns robust featur
e representation so as to resist adversarial attacks. Meanwhile, the self-supervised learning aims to learn robust and semantic embedding from data itself. With these views, we introduce self-supervised learning to against adversarial examples in this paper. Specifically, the self-supervised representation coupled with k-Nearest Neighbour is proposed for classification. To further strengthen the defense ability, self-supervised adversarial training is proposed, which maximizes the mutual information between the representations of original examples and the corresponding adversarial examples. Experimental results show that the self-supervised representation outperforms its supervised version in respect of robustness and self-supervised adversarial training can further improve the defense ability efficiently.
We propose self-adaptive training -- a unified training algorithm that dynamically calibrates and enhances training process by model predictions without incurring extra computational cost -- to advance both supervised and self-supervised learning of
deep neural networks. We analyze the training dynamics of deep networks on training data that are corrupted by, e.g., random noise and adversarial examples. Our analysis shows that model predictions are able to magnify useful underlying information in data and this phenomenon occurs broadly even in the absence of emph{any} label information, highlighting that model predictions could substantially benefit the training process: self-adaptive training improves the generalization of deep networks under noise and enhances the self-supervised representation learning. The analysis also sheds light on understanding deep learning, e.g., a potential explanation of the recently-discovered double-descent phenomenon in empirical risk minimization and the collapsing issue of the state-of-the-art self-supervised learning algorithms. Experiments on the CIFAR, STL and ImageNet datasets verify the effectiveness of our approach in three applications: classification with label noise, selective classification and linear evaluation. To facilitate future research, the code has been made public available at https://github.com/LayneH/self-adaptive-training.
Despite the empirical success of using Adversarial Training to defend deep learning models against adversarial perturbations, so far, it still remains rather unclear what the principles are behind the existence of adversarial perturbations, and what
adversarial training does to the neural network to remove them. In this paper, we present a principle that we call Feature Purification, where we show one of the causes of the existence of adversarial examples is the accumulation of certain small dense mixtures in the hidden weights during the training process of a neural network; and more importantly, one of the goals of adversarial training is to remove such mixtures to purify hidden weights. We present both experiments on the CIFAR-10 dataset to illustrate this principle, and a theoretical result proving that for certain natural classification tasks, training a two-layer neural network with ReLU activation using randomly initialized gradient descent indeed satisfies this principle. Technically, we give, to the best of our knowledge, the first result proving that the following two can hold simultaneously for training a neural network with ReLU activation. (1) Training over the original data is indeed non-robust to small adversarial perturbations of some radius. (2) Adversarial training, even with an empirical perturbation algorithm such as FGM, can in fact be provably robust against ANY perturbations of the same radius. Finally, we also prove a complexity lower bound, showing that low complexity models such as linear classifiers, low-degree polynomials, or even the neural tangent kernel for this network, CANNOT defend against perturbations of this same radius, no matter what algorithms are used to train them.
Pre-trained models, e.g., from ImageNet, have proven to be effective in boosting the performance of many downstream applications. It is too demanding to acquire large-scale annotations to build such models for medical imaging. Meanwhile, there are nu
merous clinical data (in the form of images and text reports) stored in the hospital information systems. The paired image-text data from the same patient study could be utilized for the pre-training task in a weakly supervised manner. However, the integrity, accessibility, and amount of such raw data vary across different institutes, e.g., paired vs. unpaired (image-only or text-only). In this work, we introduce an image-text pre-training framework that can learn from these raw data with mixed data inputs, i.e., paired image-text data, a mixture of paired and unpaired data. The unpaired data can be sourced from one or multiple institutes (e.g., images from one institute coupled with texts from another). Specifically, we propose a transformer-based training framework for jointly learning the representation of both the image and text data. In addition to the existing masked language modeling, multi-scale masked vision modeling is introduced as a self-supervised training task for image patch regeneration. We not only demonstrate the feasibility of pre-training across mixed data inputs but also illustrate the benefits of adopting such pre-trained models in 3 chest X-ray applications, i.e., classification, retrieval, and image regeneration. Superior results are reported in comparison to prior art using MIMIC-CXR, NIH14-CXR, and OpenI-CXR datasets.
We investigate a strategy for improving the efficiency of contrastive learning of visual representations by leveraging a small amount of supervised information during pre-training. We propose a semi-supervised loss, SuNCEt, based on noise-contrastive
estimation and neighbourhood component analysis, that aims to distinguish examples of different classes in addition to the self-supervised instance-wise pretext tasks. On ImageNet, we find that SuNCEt can be used to match the semi-supervised learning accuracy of previous contrastive approaches while using less than half the amount of pre-training and compute. Our main insight is that leveraging even a small amount of labeled data during pre-training, and not only during fine-tuning, provides an important signal that can significantly accelerate contrastive learning of visual representations.
