Semi-Supervised Adaptation of Vision-Language Models for Image Classification

The paper introduces Self‑Evolutionary CLIP (SE‑CLIP), a semi‑supervised framework that adapts vision‑language models like CLIP to satellite imagery. SE‑CLIP uses a two‑phase pipeline: an initial warm‑up on a small set of annotated seeds followed by a recursive discovery phase that iteratively selects high‑confidence samples from unlabeled data. A class‑balanced selection strategy is applied to keep the evolving support set balanced, and experiments on the UCM and NWPU benchmarks show that SE‑CLIP outperforms existing semi‑supervised methods.

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.

Rethinking Dataset Distillation for Classification: Do Distilled Sets Outperform Coresets?

arXiv:2606. 18209v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Dataset distillation (DD) has emerged as a prominent approach in data centric machine learning, aiming to synthesize compact training sets for efficient training by compressing the information in large datasets into a small number of synthetic samples.
