Researchers have developed a new method for self-supervised learning called dataset-level regularization. This technique aims to improve the alignment of representations by regularizing their distribution, preventing collapse. Unlike previous methods that compute regularization within a minibatch, this approach maintains a dataset-level state in CPU memory to use globally constructed per-instance targets during training. When applied to contrastive and non-contrastive approaches like SimCLR and SIGReg, it showed consistent improvements across various tasks, particularly at smaller batch sizes. AI
