Researchers have introduced Shared Gaussianization (SG), a novel method for analyzing contrastive learning techniques. SG acts as a Gaussianity test on normalized views of data, detecting both misalignment and non-uniformity. The study demonstrates that SG can bound the excess InfoNCE loss and provides insights into the differing objectives of SG and InfoNCE, particularly in scenarios with nuisance channels or at finite batch sizes.
