Researchers have proposed a new theoretical framework for self-supervised learning (SSL) by framing it as latent distribution matching (LDM). This approach aims to unify various existing SSL methods, including contrastive and non-contrastive techniques, under a single theoretical umbrella. The LDM framework also offers guidance for developing novel SSL approaches and has led to the derivation of a new Bayesian filtering model for time-series data. AI
