Retail product Image classification problems are often few shot classification problems, given retail product classes cannot have the type of variations across images like a cat or dog or tree could have. Previous works have shown different methods to finetune Convolutional Neural Networks to achieve better classification accuracy on such datasets. In this work, we try to address the problem statement : Can we pretrain a Convolutional Neural Network backbone which yields good enough representations for retail product images, so that training a simple logistic regression on these representations gives us good classifiers ? We use contrastive learning and pseudolabel based noisy student training to learn representations that get accuracy in order of finetuning the entire Convnet backbone for retail product image classification. |
