Self-supervised learning is emerging in fine-grained visual recognition with promising results. However, existing self-supervised learning methods are often susceptible to irrelevant patterns in self-supervised tasks and lack the capability to represent the subtle differences inherent in fine-grained visual recognition (FGVR), resulting in generally poorer performance. To address this, we propose a novel Priority-Perception Self-Supervised Learning framework, denoted as PP-SSL, which can effectively filter out irrelevant feature interference and extract more subtle discriminative features throughout the training process. Specifically, it composes of two main parts: the Anti-Interference Strategy (AIS) and the Image-Aided Distinction Module (IADM). In AIS, a fine-grained textual description corpus is established, and a knowledge distillation strategy is devised to guide the model in eliminating irrelevant features while enhancing the learning of more discriminative and high-quality features. IADM reveals that extracting GradCAM from the original image effectively reveals subtle differences between fine-grained categories. Compared to features extracted from intermediate or output layers, the original image retains more detail, allowing for a deeper exploration of the subtle distinctions among fine-grained classes. Extensive experimental results indicate that the PP-SSL significantly outperforms existing methods across various datasets, highlighting its effectiveness in fine-grained recognition tasks. Our code will be made publicly available upon publication. |
