SeBA: Semi-supervised few-shot learning via Separated-at-Birth Alignment for tabular data

arXiv:2605. 08519v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning from scarce labeled data with a larger pool of unlabeled samples, known as semi-supervised few-shot learning (SS-FSL), remains critical for applications involving tabular data in domains like medicine, finance, and science.

Domain-Specific Self-Supervised Representation Learning for Retinal Fundus Classification

The paper explores contrastive self‑supervised learning (SSL) for retinal fundus image classification, comparing SimSiam and SimCLR under limited data and computational resources. It investigates how retinal‑specific augmentation strategies and training parameters affect representation quality, evaluated through linear probing and fine‑tuning on multi‑disease classification and diabetic retinopathy grading tasks. Results indicate that tailored augmentations enable lightweight SSL models to learn transferable representations, reducing reliance on large annotated datasets while achieving competitive performance.

JEPAMatch: Geometric Representation Shaping for Semi-Supervised Learning

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.
