Self-Supervised Convolutional Neural Network

A self-supervised convolutional neural network (CNN) learns powerful visual representations from unlabeled images by solving pretext tasks — such as contrastive instance discrimination or masked-patch prediction — and then fine-tunes on a small labeled set. This approach dramatically reduces dependence on large annotated datasets while preserving the spatial feature-extraction strengths of convolutional architectures.
