Pseudo-label-based semi-supervised learning (SSL) has achieved great success on raw data utilization. However, its training procedure suffers from confirmation bias due to the noise contained in self-generated artificial labels. Moreover, the model’s judgment becomes noisier in real-world applications with extensive out-of-distribution data. To address this issue, we propose a general method named Class-aware Contrastive Semi-Supervised Learning (CCSSL), which is a drop-in helper to improve the pseudo-label quality and enhance the model’s robustness in the real-world setting. Rather than treating real-world data as a union set, our method separately handles reliable in-distribution data with class-wise clustering for blending into downstream tasks and noisy out-of-distribution data with image-wise contrastive for better generalization. Furthermore, by applying target re-weighting, we successfully emphasize clean label learning and simultaneously reduce noisy label learning. Despite its simplicity, our proposed CCSSL has significant performance improvements over the state-of-the-art SSL methods on the standard datasets CIFAR100 and STL10. On the real-world dataset Semi-iNat 2021, we improve FixMatch by 9.80% and CoMatch by 3.18%. Code is available https://github.com/TencentYoutuResearch/Classification-SemiCLS.

CrossPoint: Self-Supervised Cross-Modal Contrastive Learning for 3D Point Cloud Understanding

Manual annotation of large-scale point cloud dataset for varying tasks such as 3D object classification, segmentation and detection is often laborious owing to the irregular structure of point clouds. Self-supervised learning, which operates without any human labeling, is a promising approach to address this issue. We observe in the real world that humans are capable of mapping the visual concepts learnt from 2D images to understand the 3D world. Encouraged by this insight, we propose CrossPoint, a simple cross-modal contrastive learning approach to learn transferable 3D point cloud representations. It enables a 3D-2D correspondence of objects by maximizing agreement between point clouds and the corresponding rendered 2D image in the invariant space, while encouraging invariance to transformations in the point cloud modality. Our joint training objective combines the feature correspondences within and across modalities, thus ensembles a rich learning signal from both 3D point cloud and 2D image modalities in a self-supervised fashion. Experimental results show that our approach outperforms the previous unsupervised learning methods on a diverse range of downstream tasks including 3D object classification and segmentation. Further, the ablation studies validate the potency of our approach for a better point cloud understanding. Code and pretrained models are available at http://github.com/MohamedAfham/CrossPoint.
