Effective and Efficient Graph Learning for Multi-view Clustering

원문 초록

Despite the impressive clustering performance and efficiency in characterizing both the relationship between data and cluster structure, existing graph-based multi-view clustering methods still have the following drawbacks. They suffer from the expensive time burden due to both the construction of graphs and eigen-decomposition of Laplacian matrix, and fail to explore the cluster structure of large-scale data. Moreover, they require a post-processing to get the final clustering, resulting in suboptimal performance. Furthermore, rank of the learned view-consensus graph cannot approximate the target rank. In this paper, drawing the inspiration from the bipartite graph, we propose an effective and efficient graph learning model for multi-view clustering. Specifically, our method exploits the view-similar between graphs of different views by the minimization of tensor Schatten p-norm, which well characterizes both the spatial structure and complementary information embedded in graphs of different views. We learn view-consensus graph with adaptively weighted strategy and connectivity constraint such that the connected components indicates clusters directly. Our proposed algorithm is time-economical and obtains the stable results and scales well with the data size. Extensive experimental results indicate that our method is superior to state-of-the-art methods.
