Incomplete Multi-View Clustering (IMVC) aims to explore comprehensive representations from multiple views with missing samples. Recent studies have revealed that IMVC methods benefit from Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) in achieving robust feature imputation and effective representation learning. Despite these notable improvements, GCN imputation methods often cause a distribution shift between the imputed and original representations, particularly when the neighbors of the imputed nodes are assigned to different groups. Moreover, GCN learning methods tend to produce homogeneous imputed representations, which blur cluster boundaries and hinder effective discriminative clustering. To remedy these challenges, the Local Refinement and Global Realignment (LRGR) Self-supervised model is proposed for incomplete multi-view clustering, which includes two stages. In the first stage, a local imputed refinement module is designed to enhance the versatility of imputed representations through cross-view contrastive learning guided by view-specific prototypes. In the second stage, a global realignment module is introduced to achieve semantic consistency across views, alleviating distribution shifts by leveraging pseudo-labels and their corresponding confidence scores as guidance. Experiments on five widely used multi-view datasets demonstrate the competitiveness and superiority of our method compared to state-of-the-art approaches.

SparseMVC: Probing Cross-view Sparsity Variations for Multi-view Clustering

Existing multi-view clustering methods employ various strategies to address data-level sparsity and view-level dynamic fusion. However, we identify a critical yet overlooked issue: varying sparsity across views. Cross-view sparsity variations lead to encoding discrepancies, heightening sample-level semantic heterogeneity and making view-level dynamic weighting inappropriate. To tackle these challenges, we propose Adaptive Sparse Autoencoders for Multi-View Clustering (SparseMVC), a framework with three key modules. Initially, the sparse autoencoder probes the sparsity of each view and adaptively adjusts encoding formats via an entropy-matching loss term, mitigating cross-view inconsistencies. Subsequently, the correlation-informed sample reweighting module employs attention mechanisms to assign weights by capturing correlations between early-fused global and view-specific features, reducing encoding discrepancies and balancing contributions. Furthermore, the cross-view distribution alignment module aligns feature distributions during the late fusion stage, accommodating datasets with an arbitrary number of views. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SparseMVC achieves state-of-the-art clustering performance. Our framework advances the field by extending sparsity handling from the data-level to view-level and mitigating the adverse effects of encoding discrepancies through sample-level dynamic weighting.
