• Abstract: Stochastic neighbor embedding (SNE) methods $t$-SNE, UMAP are two most popular dimensionality reduction methods for data visualization. Contrastive learning, especially self-supervised contrastive learning (SSCL), has showed great success in embedding features from unlabeled data. The conceptual connection between SNE and SSCL has been exploited. In this work, within the scope of preserving neighboring information of a dataset, we extend the self-supervised contrastive approach to the fully-supervised setting, allowing us to effectively leverage label information. Clusters of samples belonging to the same class are pulled together in low-dimensional embedding space, while simultaneously pushing apart clusters of samples from different classes.

  We argue that the performance of the final classifier depends on the data separation present in the latent space and visual separation present in the projection. We demonstrate our results by the classification of five real-world challenging image datasets of human intestinal parasites with only 1% supervised samples.

  We explore the relationship between self-supervised learning and supervised learning, and study how self-supervised learning helps robust data-efficient deep learning. We propose hyperspherical consistency regularization (HCR), a simple yet effective plug-and-play method, to regularize the classifier using feature-dependent information and thus avoid bias from labels.

  Learning from fully-unlabeled data is challenging in Multimedia Forensics problems, such as Person Re-Identification and Text Authorship Attribution. Recent self-supervised learning methods have shown to be effective when dealing with fully-unlabeled data in cases where the underlying classes have significant semantic differences. We propose a strategy to tackle Person Re-Identification and Text Authorship Attribution by enabling learning from unlabeled data even when samples from different classes are not prominently diverse.
