对比自监督学习技术是一种很有前途的方法，它通过学习对使两种事物相似或不同的东西进行编码来构建表示。Contrastive learning有很多文章介绍，区别于生成式的自监督方法，如AutoEncoder通过重建输入信号获取中间表示，Contrastive Methods通过在特征空间建立度量，学习判别不同类型的输入，不需要重建信号而又充分挖掘了无标签数据之间的特征差异。

对比学习通过同时最大化同一图像的不同变换视图(例如剪裁，翻转，颜色变换等)之间的一致性，以及最小化不同图像的变换视图之间的一致性来学习的。简单来说，就是对比学习要做到相同的图像经过各类变换之后，依然能识别出是同一张图像，所以要最大化各类变换后图像的相似度（因为都是同一个图像得到的）。相反，如果是不同的图像（即使经过各种变换可能看起来会很类似），就要最小化它们之间的相似度。通过这样的对比训练，编码器(encoder)能学习到图像的更高层次的通用特征 (image-level representations)，而不是图像级别的生成模型(pixel-level generation)。

本资源整理了最近几年，特别是2020年对比无监督学习最新的一些必读论文，方便需要的朋友研究使用。
