Contrastive Strategy

Contrastive learning strategies are increasingly used to improve machine learning model performance across diverse applications. This approach focuses on learning by comparing and contrasting data points, enhancing the model's ability to distinguish between different classes or states. Current research explores its application in areas such as defending against adversarial attacks in federated learning, enabling efficient lifelong learning and selective forgetting, and facilitating complex tasks like probabilistic inference and robotic manipulation through contrastive representation learning. The resulting advancements have significant implications for improving model robustness, efficiency, and adaptability in various fields.
