#1 Bifurcate then Alienate: Incomplete Multi-view Clustering via Coupled Distribution Learning with Linear Overhead [PDF] [Copy] [Kimi1] [REL]

Authors: Shengju Yu, Yiu-ming Cheung, Siwei Wang, Xinwang Liu, En Zhu

Despite remarkable advances, existing incomplete multi-view clustering (IMC) methods typically leverage either perspective-shared or perspective-specific determinants to encode cluster representations. To address this limitation, we introduce a BACDL algorithm designed to explicitly capture both concurrently, thereby exploiting heterogeneous data more effectively. It chooses to bifurcate feature clusters and further alienate them to enlarge the discrimination. With distribution learning, it successfully couples view guidance into feature clusters to alleviate dimension inconsistency. Then, building on the principle that samples in one common cluster own similar marginal distribution and conditional distribution, it unifies the association between feature clusters and sample clusters to bridge all views. Thereafter, all incomplete sample clusters are reordered and mapped to a common one to formulate clustering embedding. Last, the overall linear overhead endows it with a resource-efficient characteristic.
