• Abstract summary: This study presents a new approach called Sufficient Multi-View Clustering (SUMVC) that examines the multi-view clustering framework from an information-theoretic standpoint. Firstly, we develop a simple and reliable multi-view clustering method SCMVC that employs variational analysis to generate consistent information. Secondly, we propose a sufficient representation lower bound to enhance consistent information and minimise unnecessary information among views.

• Abstract: Multi-view clustering (MVC) is a popular technique for improving clustering performance using various data sources. However, existing methods primarily focus on acquiring consistent information while often neglecting the issue of redundancy across multiple views. This study presents a new approach called Sufficient Multi-View Clustering (SUMVC) that examines the multi-view clustering framework from an information-theoretic standpoint. Our proposed method consists of two parts. Firstly, we develop a simple and reliable multi-view clustering method SCMVC (simple consistent multi-view clustering) that employs variational analysis to generate consistent information. Secondly, we propose a sufficient representation lower bound to enhance consistent information and minimise unnecessary information among views. The proposed SUMVC method offers a promising solution to the problem of multi-view clustering and provides a new perspective for analyzing multi-view data. To verify the effectiveness of our model, we conducted a theoretical analysis based on the Bayes Error Rate, and experiments on multiple multi-view datasets demonstrate the superior performance of SUMVC.

  We propose a novel incomplete multi-view clustering network, called Cognitive Deep Incomplete Multi-view Clustering Network (CDIMC-net) It captures the high-level features and local structure of each view by incorporating the view-specific deep encoders and graph embedding strategy into a framework. Based on the human cognition, i.e., learning from easy to hard, it introduces a self-paced strategy to select the most confident samples for model training.

  We propose a generative partial multi-view clustering model, named as GP-MVC, to address the incomplete multi-view problem. First, multi-view encoder networks are trained to learn common low-dimensional representations, followed by a clustering layer to capture the consistent cluster structure across multiple views. Second, view-specific generative adversarial networks are developed to generate the missing data of one view conditioning on the shared representation given by other views.
