EvoFMVC: Trusted Federated Multi-View Clustering with Evolutionary Fusion

With the growing demand for decentralized collaborative analysis of privacy-sensitive data, federated multi-view clustering (FMVC) has attracted widespread attention due to its ability to balance privacy protection and collaborative modeling. However, current methods still face the following challenges: (1) Clients need to frequently upload high-dimensional data such as model parameters or graph structures, resulting in high communication costs; (2) The structured data uploaded often contains semantic features and has a high risk of being inverted; (3) The server usually merges the data from all clients with the fixed fusion rule, which may result in a suboptimized clustering result when there exist low-quality clients. To address the issues, we propose a new trusted federated multi-view clustering framework (EvoFMVC) that introduces three key innovations: First, lightweight trusted evidence serves as a compact communication medium, significantly reducing overhead compared to conventional model parameters or graph structures. Second, trusted evidences express clustering results in the form of probability distribution, which avoids the risk of structured information being easily inverted. Lastly, we formalize the server-side aggregation process as a neural architecture search (NAS) task where the server flexibly uses different fusion operators to filter and fuse necessary views through evolutionary algorithms, which significantly improves the fusion effect and model performance. Experimental results on multiple datasets show that our method is superior to existing FMVC methods in terms of clustering accuracy and communication efficiency.

Uncertainty-Guided View-Strength-Aware Feature Utilization for Multi-View Classification

In multi-view classification tasks (MVC), each view provides an unique perspective on the data, offering complementary information that can improve classification performance when properly integrated. However, traditional methods typically adopt a uniform processing strategy for all views before fusion, overlooking the fact that different views may require different treatments due to variations in their quality and informativeness. To address this limitation, we propose a novel framework called Uncertainty-Guided View-Strength-Aware Feature Utilization (UVF) for multi-view classification. Our approach introduces a view uncertainty estimation module to quantify the discriminative strength of each view. Based on this estimation, a Differentiated Feature Selector (DFS) adaptively selects features, retaining informative dimensions in weak views while preserving original features in strong views. Furthermore, we employ an uncertainty-guided fusion strategy that assigns dynamic weights to each view's contribution based on its uncertainty score, enhancing the robustness and reliability of the final decision. Experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method significantly outperforms conventional approaches, achieving better classification accuracy and interpretability through strength-aware feature processing and fusion.

In multi-view classification tasks, integrating information from multiple views effectively is crucial for improving model performance. However, most existing methods fail to fully leverage the complex relationships between views, often treating them independently or using static fusion strategies. In this paper, we propose a View-Association-Guided Dynamic Multi-View Classification method (AssoDMVC) to address these limitations. Our approach dynamically models and incorporates the relationships between different views during the classification process. Specifically, we introduce a view-relation-guided mechanism that captures the dependencies and interactions between views, allowing for more flexible and adaptive feature fusion. This dynamic fusion strategy ensures that each view contributes optimally based on its contextual relevance and the inter-view relationships. Extensive experiments on multiple benchmark datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms traditional multi-view classification techniques, offering a more robust and efficient solution for tasks involving complex multi-view data.
