description | In this paper, we introduced a novel group self-supervised learning approach designed to improve visual representation learning. This new method aimed to rectify the limitations observed in conventional self-supervised learning. Traditional methods tended to focus on embedding distortion-invariant in single-view features. However, our belief was that a better representation can be achieved by creating a group of features derived from multiple views. To expand the siamese self-supervised architecture, we increased the number of image instances in each crop, enabling us to obtain an average feature from a group of views to use as a distortion, invariant embedding. The training efficiency has greatly increased with rapid convergence. When combined with a robust linear protocol, this group self-supervised learning model achieved competitive results in CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, Tiny ImageNet, and ImageNet-100 classification tasks. Most importantly, our model demonstrated significant convergence gains within just 30 epochs as opposed to the typical 1000 epochs required by most other self-supervised techniques. |
