self supervised representation learning

• Github repository: https://github.com/phzwart/simlx/
• Documentation https://phzwart.github.io/simlx/

Getting started with your project

1. Create a New Repository

First, create a repository on GitHub with the same name as this project, and then run the following commands:

git init -b main
git add .
git commit -m "init commit"
git remote add origin git@github.com:phzwart/simlx.git
git push -u origin main

2. Set Up Your Development Environment

Then, install the environment and the pre-commit hooks with

make install

This will also generate your uv.lock file

3. Run the pre-commit hooks

Initially, the CI/CD pipeline might be failing due to formatting issues. To resolve those run:

uv run pre-commit run -a

4. Commit the changes

Lastly, commit the changes made by the two steps above to your repository.

git add .
git commit -m 'Fix formatting issues'
git push origin main

You are now ready to start development on your project! The CI/CD pipeline will be triggered when you open a pull request, merge to main, or when you create a new release.

To finalize the set-up for publishing to PyPI, see here. For activating the automatic documentation with MkDocs, see here. To enable the code coverage reports, see here.

Random Gaussian Projection Heads

Matryoshka U-Net now supports non-parameterized Gaussian projection heads that resample a batch-level projection matrix on every forward pass during training. Enable them with MatryoshkaUNetConfig.use_random_projections=True to obtain fast stochastic regularization (projection generation is roughly 1000× faster than QR-based alternatives).

import torch
from simlx.models.matryoshka_unet import MatryoshkaUNet, MatryoshkaUNetConfig
from simlx.models.projection_utils import (
    analyze_projection_quality,
    compute_svd_projections,
    replace_random_projections,
)

# Stage 1: train with random projections
config = MatryoshkaUNetConfig(use_random_projections=True, in_channels=3, spatial_dims=2)
model = MatryoshkaUNet(config=config).train()

# Stage 2: optionally distill projections with SVD
svd_weights = compute_svd_projections(model, train_loader, device=torch.device("cuda"))
replace_random_projections(model, svd_weights)
model.eval()

# Stage 3: inspect projection quality
metrics = analyze_projection_quality(model, val_loader)
print(metrics["bottleneck"]["variance_explained"])

After calling replace_random_projections, the heads become deterministic and can be shipped alongside the trained weights (call MatryoshkaUNet.eval() before exporting).

Releasing a new version

• Create an API Token on PyPI.
• Add the API Token to your projects secrets with the name PYPI_TOKEN by visiting this page.
• Create a new release on Github.
• Create a new tag in the form *.*.*.

For more details, see here.
