A new research paper proposes three essential principles for effective self-supervised visual representation learning. The paper formalizes these as observation, prediction, and regularization, arguing that a combination of all three is necessary for optimal results. The authors demonstrate through theoretical proofs and controlled experiments that neglecting any one of these principles leads to suboptimal outcomes, such as the constant encoder becoming a global minimizer or a lack of collapse guarantee.
