| 2025 | One-Step Adaptive Graph Learning for Incomplete Multiview Subspace ClusteringabstractIncomplete multiview clustering (IMVC) optimally integrates complementary information within incomplete multiview data to improve clustering performance. Several one-step graph-based methods show great potential for IMVC. However, the low-rank structures of similarity graphs are neglected at the initialization stage of similarity graph construction. Moreover, further investigation into complementary information integration across incomplete multiple views is needed, particularly when considering the low-rank structures implied in high-dimensional multiview data. In this paper, we present one-step adaptive graph learning (OAGL) that adaptively performs spectral embedding fusion to achieve clustering assignments at the clustering indicator level. We first initiate affinity matrices corresponding to incomplete multiple views using spare representation under two constraints, i.e., the sparsity constraint on each affinity matrix corresponding to an incomplete view and the degree matrix of the affinity matrix approximating an identity matrix. This approach promotes exploring complementary information across incomplete multiple views. Subsequently, we perform an alignment of the spectral block-diagonal matrices among incomplete multiple views using low-rank tensor learning theory. This facilitates consistency information exploration across incomplete multiple views. Furthermore, we present an effective alternating iterative algorithm to solve the resulting optimization problem. Extensive experiments on benchmark datasets demonstrate that the proposed OAGL method outperforms several state-of-the-art approaches.

| 2024 | Dynamic Graph Embedding via Meta-LearningabstractGraphs in real-world applications usually evolve constantly presenting dynamic behaviors such as social networks and transportation networks. Hence, dynamic graph embedding has gained much attention recently. In dynamic graphs, both the topology and node attributes could change over time, which pose great challenges for developing effective embedding models. Typically, the evolution process of a dynamic graph can be recorded as a series of snapshots. We observe that the evolution process inherently provides both prior information (previous snapshots) and validation information (the next snapshot). The prior information can be used to fit the evolution process, while the validation information can be used to improve the generalization ability of a graph embedding model. However, existing dynamic graph embedding models only utilize the prior information, but overlook the validation information. To tackle this issue, this paper proposes a novel dynamic graph embedding method via Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning, which utilizes both kinds of information to obtain better graph representation. The extensive experiments on eight real-world datasets demonstrate the superiority of our proposed method over state-of-the-art methods on various graph analysis tasks.

| 2023 | Low-Rank Tensor Learning for Incomplete Multiview ClusteringabstractIncomplete multiview clustering (IMVC) is an effective way to identify the underlying structure of incomplete multiview data. Most existing algorithms based on matrix factorization, graph learning or subspace learning have at least one of the following limitations: (1) the global and local structures of high-dimensional data are not effectively explored simultaneously; (2) the high-order correlations among multiple views are ignored. In this article, we propose a low-rank tensor learning (LRTL) method that learns a consensus low-dimensional embedding matrix for IMVC. We first take advantage of the self-expressiveness property of high-dimensional data to construct sparse similarity matrices for individual views under low-rank and sparsity constraints. Individual low-dimensional embedding matrices can be obtained from the sparse similarity matrices using spectral embedding techniques. This approach simultaneously explores the global and local structures of incomplete multiview data. Then, we present a multiview embedding matrix fusion model that incorporates individual low-dimensional embedding matrices into a third-norm tensor to achieve a consensus low-dimensional embedding matrix. The fusion model exploits complementary information by finding the high-order correlations among multiple views. In addition, the computational cost of an improved fusion strategy is dramatically reduced. Extensive experimental results demonstrate that the proposed LRTL method outperforms several state-of-the-art approaches. Jie Chen 0065, Zhu Wang 0007, Hua Mao 0001, Xi Peng 0001 |
