JEPAMatch introduces a new semi‑supervised learning framework that replaces traditional output‑thresholding with explicit geometric shaping of latent representations. By combining the FlexMatch loss with a latent‑space regularization inspired by LeJEPA, the method encourages isotropic Gaussian structure in the embedding space, mitigating class imbalance and noisy pseudo‑labels. Experiments on CIFAR‑100, STL‑10, and Tiny‑ImageNet show consistent performance gains and faster convergence compared to existing FixMatch‑based baselines.
