**TLDR:** Visual representations learned without labels that can be reused across many downstream vision tasks.

<p>Self-supervised visual features make it possible to learn strong representations from large-scale unlabeled image data. These features can be reused in a wide range of tasks including classification, segmentation, retrieval, and anomaly detection. They are especially valuable in sectors where annotation cost is high. They are among the concepts that fundamentally transformed the representation-learning paradigm in vision.</p>
