VISReg: Variance-Invariance-Sketching Regularization for JEPA training
arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2606.02572v1 Announce Type: new Self-supervised learning methods prevent embedding collapse via modeling heuristics or explicit regularization of the embedding space. Among the latter, VICReg decomposes regularization into variance and covariance objectives, offering flexibility and interpretability. However, covariance captures only second-order statistics -- encouraging decorrelation but failing to enforce the full distributional shape needed for stable
