A new study published on arXiv investigates the complexity of linear regions within self-supervised deep ReLU networks. Researchers found that self-supervised learning methods create fewer linear regions compared to supervised methods while achieving similar accuracy. The study also observed that contrastive methods expand these regions over time, while self-distillation methods merge them, and that these geometric properties can indicate representation quality and detect early signs of model collapse.
