Dataset distillation compresses a large training set into a compact synthetic set while retaining its downstream utility. Most existing methods target randomly initialized networks, whereas modern vision systems often adapt frozen pretrained encoders with lightweight modules.
arXiv:2603. 15553v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The landscape of self-supervised learning (SSL) is currently dominated by generative approaches (e.
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.
arXiv:2603. 18846v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Foundation models are used to extract transferable representations from large amounts of unlabeled data, typically via self-supervised learning (SSL).
arXiv:2606. 00514v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative modeling and self-supervised representation learning (SSL) optimize structurally different objectives: generative training rewards distributional fidelity, while SSL rewards semantic coherence.
Representation alignment has become an effective way to accelerate diffusion transformer training and improve generation quality. Recent self-alignment methods, such as SRA and Self-Flow, further remove the dependency on external pretrained encoders by constructing alignment within the diffusion model itself.
arXiv:2602. 02381v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Joint-embedding self-supervised learning (SSL), the key paradigm for unsupervised representation learning from visual data, learns from invariances between semantically-related data pairs.
arXiv:2607. 05319v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study why diffusion autoencoders can achieve similar image quality while learning substantially different latent structures.
arXiv:2603. 25144v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Dataset distillation (DD) compresses a large training set into a small synthetic set, reducing storage and training cost, and has shown strong results on general benchmarks.
Recent advances in diffusion models have shown impressive performance in controllable image generation and dense prediction tasks. However, existing approaches typically treat diffusion-based controllable generation and dense prediction as separate tasks, overlooking the potential benefits of jointly modeling the heterogeneous distributions.
arXiv:2607. 27372v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The deep learning revolution, kicked off by AlexNet, taught us that end-to-end training beats decomposing a problem into hand-designed stages.
