This paper proposes a novel Deep Contrastive Graph Learning (DCGL) model for general data clustering. The existing Graph Convolutional Network (GCN)-based methods primarily focus on initial graph estimation, neglecting original features and lacking effective clustering guidance. DCGL addresses these limitations by incorporating auto-encoder with GCN to emphasize both graph structure and original features. It also introduces feature-level contrastive learning to enhance discriminative capacity and uses clustering-oriented guidance for better results. The model is evaluated on several benchmark datasets, outperforming state-of-the-art algorithms.

This paper creates a new way to group similar things together called data clustering. Right now, some computers use a method called Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) that works well but only if it already has an idea of how the things are related. The problem is that these models don’t pay attention to what makes each thing unique. To fix this, scientists came up with a new model called Deep Contrastive Graph Learning (DCGL). It’s like a puzzle solver that looks at both what makes each thing similar and different, and then uses that information to group them together correctly. The team tested their model on lots of examples and it worked better than other methods.
