大家好，我是对白。
最近对比学习真的太火了，已然成为各大顶会争相投稿的一个热门领域，而它火的原因也很简单，就是因为它解决了有监督训练标注数据有限这个典型问题（这个问题在工业界非常滴常见）。所以对比学习的出现，给CV、NLP和推荐都带来了极大的福音，具体来说：
1、在CV领域，解决了“在没有更大标注数据集的情况下，如何采用自监督预训练模式，来从中吸取图像本身的先验知识分布，得到一个预训练模型”的问题；
2、在NLP领域，验证了”自监督预训练使用的数据量越大，模型越复杂，那么模型能够吸收的知识越多，对下游任务效果来说越好“这样一个客观事实；
3、在推荐领域，解决了以下四个原因：数据的稀疏性、Item的长尾分布、跨域推荐中多个不同的view聚合问题以及增加模型的鲁棒性或对抗噪音，感兴趣地可以看我写的这篇文章：推荐系统中不得不学的对比学习（Contrastive Learning）方法
因此为了更加清楚的掌握对比学习的前沿方向与最新进展，我为大家整理了最近一年来各大顶会中对比学习相关的论文，一共涵盖：ICLR2021,SIGIR2021,WWW2021,CVPR2021,AAAI2021,NAACL2021,ICLR2020,NIPS2020,CVPR2020,ICML2020,KDD2020共十一个会议60多篇论文。本次整理以long paper和research paper为主，也包含少量的short paper和industry paper。
本文整理的论文列表已经同步更新到GitHub，GitHub上会持续更新顶会论文，欢迎大家关注和star~
