A new theoretical analysis explores the robustness of distributed self-supervised learning (D-SSL) frameworks when faced with non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) data. The research indicates that Masked Image Modeling (MIM) is more resilient to data heterogeneity than Contrastive Learning (CL). Furthermore, the study suggests that decentralized SSL's robustness improves with increased network connectivity, implying federated learning is as robust as decentralized learning. To enhance MIM, the paper introduces MAR loss, which incorporates local-to-global alignment regularization, and experimental results validate both the theoretical findings and the effectiveness of MAR loss.
