Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| add an adversarial view generated from the original image, alongside the two augmented views (ablation) | AdvCL contrastive pretraining · CIFAR-10 SLF | RA: 42.12 -> 50.19 | Helped |
| add a high-frequency image view (ablation) | AdvCL contrastive pretraining · CIFAR-10 SLF | RA: 50.19 -> 50.45 | Helped |
| use a low-frequency view rather than a high-frequency view (ablation) | AdvCL contrastive pretraining · CIFAR-10 SLF | RA: 50.45 -> 49.51 | Hurt |
| add both low- and high-frequency views (ablation) | AdvCL contrastive pretraining · CIFAR-10 SLF | RA: 50.45 -> 50.03 | Hurt |
| add ClusterFit pseudo-label adversarial classification stimulus (ablation) | AdvCL · CIFAR-10 SLF | RA: 48.89 -> 50.45 | Helped |
| ensemble pseudo-label cluster counts instead of using a single cluster count (ablation) | AdvCL with ImageNet SimCLR ClusterFit · CIFAR-10 SLF | RA: 50.12 -> 50.45 | Helped |
| use standard linear finetuning instead of adversarial linear finetuning (ablation) | AdvCL · CIFAR-10 | RA: 52.01 -> 50.45 | Hurt |
| use AdvCL pretraining rather than ACL | ResNet-18 · CIFAR-10 SLF | RA: 42.87 -> 50.45 | Helped |
| use AdvCL pretraining rather than ACL | ResNet-18 · CIFAR-100 SLF | RA: 20.97 -> 27.67 | Helped |
| use AdvCL pretraining rather than ACL | ResNet-18 · CIFAR-100 → STL-10 SLF | AA: 21.75 -> 20.86 | Hurt |
| use AdvCL pretraining rather than ACL | ResNet-18 · CIFAR-100 → STL-10 SLF | SA: 45.91 -> 50.71 | Helped |
| use AdvCL pretraining rather than ACL | ResNet-18 · SVHN | RA: 39.34 -> 45.15 | Helped |
