Self-supervised Learning with Local Attention-Aware Feature
share
In this work, we propose a novel methodology for self-supervised learning for generating global and local attention-aware visual features. Our approach is based on training a model to differentiate between specific image transformations of an input sample and the patched images. Utilizing this approach, the proposed method is able to outperform the previous best competitor by 1.03 dataset. Furthermore, our approach outperforms the fully-supervised learning method on the STL-10 dataset. Experimental results and visualizations show the capability of successfully learning global and local attention-aware visual representations.
