Existing fair multi-view clustering methods typically suffer from a severe trade-off between clustering utility and fairness, while incurring prohibitive quadratic complexity on large-scale datasets. To address these challenges, we propose Causal Disentangled Anchor Learning (CDAL), a novel framewor…
In multi-view clustering (MVC), conventional anchor learning based models implicitly assume a uniform distribution of anchors across clusters, which could lead to inferior representation, especially when clusters vary significantly in size, as larger clusters require more anchors so as to adequately…
Clustering is a fundamental task in unsupervised learning, but most existing methods heavily rely on hyperparameters such as the number of clusters or other sensitive settings, limiting their applicability in real-world scenarios. To address this long-standing challenge, we propose a novel and fully
Prevailing incomplete multi-view clustering (IMVC) approaches typically fail to account for the interference of view-exclusive artifacts when learning view-consensus representations, which could compromise the fidelity of the resulting similarity measure. Moreover, inconsistencies in anchor order ac
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 c…
Although receiving notable improvements, current multi-view clustering (MVC) techniques generally rely on feature library mechanisms to propagate accumulated knowledge from historical views to newly-arrived data, which overlooks the information pertaining to basis embedding within each view. Moreov…
Recent advancements in multiple kernel clustering (MKC) have highlighted the effectiveness of late fusion strategies, particularly in enhancing computational efficiency to near-linear complexity while achieving promising clustering performance. However, existing methods encounter three significant l…
Multi-view clustering (MVC) leverages complementary information from diverse data sources to enhance clustering performance. However, its practical deployment in distributed and privacy-sensitive scenarios remains challenging. Federated multi-view clustering (FMVC) has emerged as a potential solutio…
Current multi-view clustering (MVC) techniques generally focus only on the relationship between anchors and samples, while overlooking that between anchors. Moreover, due to the lack of data labels, the cluster order is inconsistent across views and accordingly anchors encounter misalignment, whi…
Anchor selection or learning has become a critical component in large-scale multi-view clustering. Existing anchor-based methods, which either select-then-fix or initialize-then-optimize with orthogonality, yield promising performance. However, these methods still suffer from instability of initiali…
Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) have exhibited extraordinary prowess in tasks like mathematics and coding, leveraging their advanced reasoning capabilities. Nevertheless, as these capabilities progress, significant concerns regarding their vulnerabilities and safety have arisen, which can pose challen
Most of incomplete multi-view clustering (IMVC) methods typically choose to ignore the missing samples and only utilize observed unpaired samples to construct bipartite similarity. Moreover, they employ a single quantity of prototypes to extract the information of $\textbf{all}$ views. To elimina…
Multi-view graph clustering (MVGC) derives encouraging grouping results by seamlessly integrating abundant information inside heterogeneous data, and has captured surging focus recently. Nevertheless, the majority of current MVGC works involve at least one hyper-parameter, which not only requires…
In numerous real-world applications, it is quite common that sample information is partially available for some views due to machine breakdown or sensor failure, causing the problem of incomplete multi-view clustering (IMVC). While several IMVC approaches using view-shared anchors have successfully…
Sample labeling is the most primary and fundamental step of semi-supervised learning. In literature, most existing methods randomly label samples with a given ratio, but achieve unpromising and unstable results due to the randomness, especially in multi-view settings. To address this issue, we propo…
Intent learning, which aims to learn users' intents for user understanding and item recommendation, has become a hot research spot in recent years. However, existing methods suffer from complex and cumbersome alternating optimization, limiting performance and scalability. To this end, we propose a n…
In this paper, we derive an upper bound of the difference between a kernel matrix and its expectation under a mild assumption. Specifically, we assume that the true distribution of the training data is an unknown isotropic Gaussian distribution. When the kernel function is a Gaussian kernel, and the…
Incomplete multi-view clustering (IMVC) methods typically encounter three drawbacks: (1) intense time and/or space overheads; (2) intractable hyper-parameters; (3) non-zero variance results. With these concerns in mind, we give a simple yet effective IMVC scheme, termed as ToRES. Concretely, instead…
