For questions related to self-supervised learning (SSL), which typically refers to techniques that automatically generate the supervisory learning signal. SSL can be used for representation learning, so it can be useful for transfer learning too. Some people consider SSL a sub-field of unsupervised learning given that many (if not all) SSL techniques do not require a human to manually annotate the inputs.
