摘要	Weakly supervised image classification trains convolutional or transformer-based networks using only coarse, incomplete, or noisy supervision — such as image-level category labels, hashtags, or web-scraped tags — without requiring precise bounding boxes or pixel annotations. This dramatically reduces labeling cost while still enabling high-accuracy visual recognition at scale.	Self-supervised image classification trains a deep visual encoder on large unlabeled image datasets by solving proxy tasks — such as predicting which two augmented views of the same image are similar — and then fine-tunes only a lightweight classifier head on labeled examples. Pioneered by frameworks such as SimCLR and MoCo around 2020, it drastically reduces the need for expensive manual annotation while achieving accuracy rivaling fully supervised models.
