arXiv:2512. 10244v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Semi-supervised few-shot learning (SSFSL) resembles real-world applications such as auto-annotation, as it aims to learn a model from a few labeled and abundant unlabeled task-specific examples to annotate the unlabeled ones.

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.

Self-supervision is a powerful technique for learning visual representations from unlabeled data. Existing techniques primarily adopt a two-stage approach for self-supervised learning (SSL): a pretraining stage on unlabeled data followed by a finetuning stage on labeled data.

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.
