Multi-view clustering (MVC) has recently garnered increasing attention for its ability to partition unlabeled samples into distinct clusters by leveraging complementary and consistent information from different views. Existing MVC methods primarily combine deep neural networks with contrastive learning for cross-view representation learning, yet often overlook the inherent global-local structural relationships among samples. While GNN-based methods capture local structures, they struggle to model global dependencies, leading to inferior inter-cluster separability. In contrast, Transformer-based methods excel at global aggregation but suffer from quadratic complexity, and their attention smoothing effect weakens fine-grained local structures, resulting in suboptimal intra-cluster compactness. To address these limitations, we propose a novel end-to-end MVC framework called Mamba-Driven Multi-View Discriminative Clustering via Global-Local Cross-View Sequence Modeling (MGLC). By flexibly constructing multi-view sequences, MGLC fully exploits the efficient sequence modeling capabilities of Mamba to jointly model cross-view dependencies and global-local structural relationships among samples. Furthermore, MGLC introduces a Cross-Mamba Fusion module to dynamically integrate cross-view and global-local structural representations. Additionally, MGLC incorporates a Dual Calibration Contrastive Learning module, guided by high-confidence pseudo-labels, that adaptively refines both feature and semantic representations while mitigating false negatives among semantically similar samples. Extensive comparative experiments and ablation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of MGLC.
