In self-supervised learning, the AI model generates data labels or other types of supervisory signals by itself based on the underlying structure of the data, their inherent characteristics and the relationships between them. It can therefore train itself to perform a given task using these self-generated labels or supervisory signals without any human-provided guidance on the expected output. 4, record 1, English, - self%2Dsupervised%20learning
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Labels generated by the model itself are often called "pseudo-labels" because, while they are useful, they are likely to be less reliable than human-provided labels. 4, record 1, English, - self%2Dsupervised%20learning

En apprentissage autosupervisé, le modèle d'IA génère lui-même des étiquettes de données ou d'autres types de signaux de supervision en se fondant sur la structure sous-jacente des données, leurs caractéristiques intrinsèques et les relations qui les unissent. Il peut ainsi s'entraîner à réaliser une tâche donnée à l'aide de ses propres étiquettes ou signaux de supervision sans qu'un humain ait indiqué ce qui doit être produit en sortie. 3, record 1, French, - apprentissage%20autosupervis%C3%A9
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
Les étiquettes générées par le modèle lui-même sont souvent appelées «pseudo-étiquettes» parce que, bien qu'elles soient utiles, elles sont susceptibles d'être moins fiables que les étiquettes fournies par un humain. 3, record 1, French, - apprentissage%20autosupervis%C3%A9

A type of lighting that utilizes light-emitting diodes (LEDs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), or polymer light-emitting diodes as sources of illumination rather than electrical filaments or gas. 3, record 4, English, - solid%2Dstate%20lighting
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The term "solid state" refers to the fact that light in an LED is emitted from a solid object (a block of semiconductor) rather than from a vacuum or gas tube, as is the case in traditional incandescent light bulbs and fluorescent lamps. Unlike traditional lighting, however, SSL creates visible light with virtually no heat or parasitic energy dissipation. In addition, its solid-state nature provides for greater resistance to shock, vibration, and wear, thereby increasing its lifespan significantly. 3, record 4, English, - solid%2Dstate%20lighting
