Traditional self-supervised learning requires CNNs using external pretext tasks (i.e., image- or video-based tasks) to encode high-level semantic visual representations. In this paper, we show that feature transformations within CNNs can also be regarded as supervisory signals to construct the self-supervised task, called emph{internal pretext task}. And such a task can be applied for the enhancement of supervised learning. Specifically, we first transform the internal feature maps by discarding different channels, and then define an additional internal pretext task to identify the discarded channels. CNNs are trained to predict the joint labels generated by the combination of self-supervised labels and original labels. By doing so, we let CNNs know which channels are missing while classifying in the hope to mine richer feature information. Extensive experiments show that our approach is effective on various models and datasets. And its worth noting that we only incur negligible computational overhead. Furthermore, our approach can also be compatible with other methods to get better results.

This paper proposes to learn reliable dense correspondence from videos in a self-supervised manner. Our learning process integrates two highly related tasks: tracking large image regions emph{and} establishing fine-grained pixel-level associations be
tween consecutive video frames. We exploit the synergy between both tasks through a shared inter-frame affinity matrix, which simultaneously models transitions between video frames at both the region- and pixel-levels. While region-level localization helps reduce ambiguities in fine-grained matching by narrowing down search regions; fine-grained matching provides bottom-up features to facilitate region-level localization. Our method outperforms the state-of-the-art self-supervised methods on a variety of visual correspondence tasks, including video-object and part-segmentation propagation, keypoint tracking, and object tracking. Our self-supervised method even surpasses the fully-supervised affinity feature representation obtained from a ResNet-18 pre-trained on the ImageNet.
Most of the existing self-supervised feature learning methods for 3D data either learn 3D features from point cloud data or from multi-view images. By exploring the inherent multi-modality attributes of 3D objects, in this paper, we propose to jointl
y learn modal-invariant and view-invariant features from different modalities including image, point cloud, and mesh with heterogeneous networks for 3D data. In order to learn modal- and view-invariant features, we propose two types of constraints: cross-modal invariance constraint and cross-view invariant constraint. Cross-modal invariance constraint forces the network to maximum the agreement of features from different modalities for same objects, while the cross-view invariance constraint forces the network to maximum agreement of features from different views of images for same objects. The quality of learned features has been tested on different downstream tasks with three modalities of data including point cloud, multi-view images, and mesh. Furthermore, the invariance cross different modalities and views are evaluated with the cross-modal retrieval task. Extensive evaluation results demonstrate that the learned features are robust and have strong generalizability across different tasks.
In this work, we propose a novel methodology for self-supervised learning for generating global and local attention-aware visual features. Our approach is based on training a model to differentiate between specific image transformations of an input s
ample and the patched images. Utilizing this approach, the proposed method is able to outperform the previous best competitor by 1.03% on the Tiny-ImageNet dataset and by 2.32% on the STL-10 dataset. Furthermore, our approach outperforms the fully-supervised learning method on the STL-10 dataset. Experimental results and visualizations show the capability of successfully learning global and local attention-aware visual representations.
Through solving pretext tasks, self-supervised learning leverages unlabeled data to extract useful latent representations replacing traditional input features in the downstream task. In various application domains, including computer vision, natural
language processing and audio/speech signal processing, a wide range of features where engineered through decades of research efforts. As it turns out, learning to predict such features has proven to be a particularly relevant pretext task leading to building useful self-supervised representations that prove to be effective for downstream tasks. However, methods and common practices for combining such pretext tasks, where each task targets a different group of features for better performance on the downstream task have not been explored and understood properly. In fact, the process relies almost exclusively on a computationally heavy experimental procedure, which becomes intractable with the increase of the number of pretext tasks. This paper introduces a method to select a group of pretext tasks among a set of candidates. The method we propose estimates properly calibrated weights for the partial losses corresponding to the considered pretext tasks during the self-supervised training process. The experiments conducted on speaker recognition and automatic speech recognition validate our approach, as the groups selected and weighted with our method perform better than classic baselines, thus facilitating the selection and combination of relevant pseudo-labels for self-supervised representation learning.
Existing self-supervised learning methods learn representation by means of pretext tasks which are either (1) discriminating that explicitly specify which features should be separated or (2) aligning that precisely indicate which features should be c
losed together, but ignore the fact how to jointly and principally define which features to be repelled and which ones to be attracted. In this work, we combine the positive aspects of the discriminating and aligning methods, and design a hybrid method that addresses the above issue. Our method explicitly specifies the repulsion and attraction mechanism respectively by discriminative predictive task and concurrently maximizing mutual information between paired views sharing redundant information. We qualitatively and quantitatively show that our proposed model learns better features that are more effective for the diverse downstream tasks ranging from classification to semantic segmentation. Our experiments on nine established benchmarks show that the proposed model consistently outperforms the existing state-of-the-art results of self-supervised and transfer learning protocol.
