📝 Boosting Unsupervised Contrastive Learning Using Diffusion-Based Data Augmentation From Scratch 🧠🔭 "DiffAug first mines sufficient prior semantic knowledge about the neighborhood to guide the diffusion steps, eliminating the need for labels, external data/models, or prior knowledge, while ensuring that the augmented and original data share a smoothed latent space."
