Attention-Based Chaotic Self-Supervision for Medical Image Classification

arXiv CS.CV

ArXi:2605.04985v1 Announce Type: new Deep learning models for medical image classification usually achieve promising results but typically rely on large, annotated datasets or standard transfer learning from ImageNet. Self-Supervised Learning (SSL) has emerged as a powerful alternative, yet common methods like masked autoencoders (MAEs) may inadvertently destroy fine-grained diagnostic features by using random masking. In this paper, we propose a novel SSL pre-
