data2vec family: contextual targets and efficient masked self-distillation

Regressed contextual latent representations from an EMA teacher's full input using masked student views, applying one self-distillation objective across separate speech, image and text settings. data2vec2 skipped masked inputs, used a convolutional decoder and amortized teacher computation across several masked student views.

Scientific scope

Inherits EMA teachers, BYOL/DINO-style self-distillation and masking. Same learning method across modalities is not a single jointly trained multimodal model: feature encoders and masking remain modality specific. Not invention of all latent prediction or evidence for a biological learning theory; benchmark gains and anti-collapse behavior have configuration limits. Version2 inherits visible-only encoding and multi-mask reuse; reported16.4fold image pretraining reduction is protocol-specific, not every modality or end-to-end workflow.
