The novel Multi-view Granular-ball Contrastive Clustering (MGBCC) method combines instance-level and cluster-level multi-view contrastive learning approaches to tackle challenges in previous methods that either overlook local structures or introduce false negatives. MGBCC segments samples into coarse-grained granular balls, establishing associations between intra-view and cross-view balls, which are then reinforced in a shared latent space for multi-granularity contrastive learning. This approach preserves the local topological structure of the sample set, demonstrating improved model discriminability.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
MGBCC is a new way to learn from different views of data that keeps track of small groups (called granular balls) and how they relate to each other. This helps the method understand both big patterns (like clusters) and small details (like individual instances). MGBCC is better than previous methods because it doesn’t lose important information or make mistakes.
