Self-Supervised Learning in Machine Learning

Self-supervised learning (SSL) is gaining a larger foothold in the world of machine learning (ML). As learning models are refined and expanded, machines that teach themselves, understand context and are able to fill in the blanks where there are holes in the information are the next step. Machines are taught to analyze, predict and advise on possible outcomes. Supervised learning - Practitioners train the machine on inputs paired with labelled outputs, teaching it to make associations. Example: A shape with three sides is labelled triangle .
