Linköping
Thesis opportunity- Self-Supervised Training for Industrial Applications
What the Master Thesis is about/background to the problem to investigate
In many industrial applications deep learning solutions are sought after, but usually these applications come with some restrictions. For example:
Can we overcome the performance of a network pre-trained traditionally on open-source datasets by leveraging self-supervised pre-training on the application images without annotations? Can we improve performance by incorporating images from the same domain, but outside the actual application scope?
Concretely we’d want the networks trained in this way to perform better on one or more downstream tasks. Such as, transfer learning to the actual small, annotated dataset, or as an all-purpose feature extractor for various tasks.
The master thesis work focuses on the following/example of research questions
An interest and solid foundation in image processing and deep learning is beneficial to assess and collect methods that are relevant to investigate. Experience in self-supervision or training of deep neural networks in general is also welcomed. Some experience in python programming is required.
To analyze and make the correct conclusions a good basis in mathematics and statistics is needed.

We work actively to reduce our climate footprint and we are active in various ways to contribute to the society and to increase diversity at our workplace.
In many industrial applications deep learning solutions are sought after, but usually these applications come with some restrictions. For example:
- The data is often difficult to annotate or hard to obtain.
- Customers don’t want to place sensitive data in data centers.
- The domain the image is captured in is starkly different to common open-source datasets or other natural images.
Can we overcome the performance of a network pre-trained traditionally on open-source datasets by leveraging self-supervised pre-training on the application images without annotations? Can we improve performance by incorporating images from the same domain, but outside the actual application scope?
Concretely we’d want the networks trained in this way to perform better on one or more downstream tasks. Such as, transfer learning to the actual small, annotated dataset, or as an all-purpose feature extractor for various tasks.
The master thesis work focuses on the following/example of research questions
- Which method self-supervision perform the best in an industrial context?
- Which self-supervision method is suitable for convolutional nets versus transformers?
- How many domain images without annotations are needed?
- How many annotated application images are needed?
- Is it required to use a large base dataset to reach optimum performance?
