A Survey on Semi-, Self- and Unsupervised Learning for Image Classification
Open accessAbstract
While deep learning strategies achieve outstanding results in computer vision tasks, one issue remains: The current strategies rely heavily on a huge amount of labeled data. In many real-world problems, it is not feasible to create such an amount of labeled training data. Therefore, it is common to incorporate unlabeled data into the training process to reach equal results with fewer labels. Due to a lot of concurrent research, it is difficult to keep track of recent developments. In this survey, we provide an overview of often used ideas and methods in image classification with fewer labels. We compare 34 methods in detail based on their performance and their commonly used ideas rather than a fine-grained taxonomy. In our analysis, we identify three major trends that lead to future research opportunities. 1. State-of-the-art methods are scalable to real-world applications in theory but issues like class imbalance, robustness, or fuzzy labels are not considered. 2. The degree of supervision which is needed to achieve comparable results to the usage of all labels is decreasing and therefore methods need to be extended to settings with a variable number of classes. 3. All methods share some common ideas but we identify clusters of methods that do not share many ideas. We show that combining ideas from different clusters can lead to better performance.
Overview
CoChat Summary
TL;DR
This survey reviews semi-, self-, and unsupervised learning for image classification, comparing 34 methods by their shared ideas and reported performance rather than a fine-grained taxonomy. It identifies three trends: limited real-world scalability, decreasing supervision requirements, and benefits from combining ideas across method clusters.
Key findings
- Across four datasets, reduced supervised methods approach supervised performance: on CIFAR-10, MixMatch and FixMatch exceed 95% accuracy and are roughly 3% below the fully supervised baseline; on CIFAR-100, FixMatch reaches about 77% versus a supervised baseline of about 80%.
- On STL-10, EnAET achieves more than 95%, and FixMatch reports nearly 95% with only 1,000 labels; reduced supervised methods can surpass the supervised baseline by about 20% due to the additional unlabeled data.
- On ILSVRC-2012, SimCLRv2 achieves the best reported Top-1 accuracy of 80.9% and Top-5 accuracy around 96%; only SimCLR, BYOL, and SimCLRv2 are less than 10% worse than the supervised baseline of around 86%.
- The survey concludes that reduced supervised learning reaches comparable results using roughly 10% of labels, and that combining ideas from different clusters can improve performance.
Methods
- Survey design: compares 34 methods for image classification, grouping them by training strategy—one-stage-semi-supervised, one-stage-unsupervised, and multi-stage-semi-supervised—and by common ideas such as cross-entropy, pseudo-labels, pretext tasks, contrastive loss, mutual information, overclustering, and mixup.
- Data and evaluation: analyzes reported results on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, STL-10, and ILSVRC-2012, using classification accuracy or cluster accuracy for unsupervised methods.
- Analysis: relies on results reported in the original papers or cross-references rather than recreating every method in a unified setup, and focuses on general trends and specialties instead of small performance differences.
Limitations
- Stated: the comparison uses reported values rather than a unified reimplementation, and differences in architectures, implementations, and adherence to semi-supervised evaluation guidelines may affect comparability.
- Stated: the common-idea framework is fuzzy and incomplete by definition, and the survey excludes related topics such as metric learning, meta learning, GANs, graph networks, pose estimation, segmentation, videos, sketches, and few-/zero-shot learning.
- Evident: the survey does not claim a complete method list and does not present new experiments; its conclusions depend on the availability and consistency of results reported by the reviewed papers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-14, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-14 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
