Siamese-architecture-based self-supervised learning usually suffers from relatively high computational consumption and unsatisfactory performance because of its slow convergence and poor feature extraction capability. To alleviate these issues, we propose a self-supervised method, called SSL 2 , that is both efficient and effective. Specifically, a global and local sampling method is proposed to increase the number of samples while maintaining connections between semantic features. More significantly, SSL 2 maintains low computational complexity and facilitates the establishment of mapping relationships between global comprehensive and local detailed features compared with other methods. In addition, an i nformation r etainer p rojection h ead (IRPH) is proposed to further balance the information between detailed inconsistency and semantic consistency. Finally, hybrid tasks are embedded into SSL 2 to optimize the model so that it can effectively leverage the data provided by global and local sampling. Extensive qualitative and quantitative evaluations of various types of benchmarks illustrate that SSL 2 outperforms existing self-supervised frameworks in commonly used computer vision tasks. Specifically, SSL 2 achieved satisfactory performance with linear classification on ImageNet, outperforming MoCo-v2 by 2.2% with fewer calculations, and it also achieved competitive results compared with other state-of-the-art methods. • A new single-branch self-supervised learning framework is designed. • A novel sampling strategy is designed to make full use of the information. • A head is designed to balance detailed inconsistency and semantic consistency. • Well-balanced hybrid loss functions are introduced.
