The proposed partial multi-view clustering (PVC) framework tackles a crucial practical research problem in real-world data analysis applications, where some views of the data are partially missing. Existing clustering methods struggle to handle incomplete views effectively, leading to suboptimal performance. To address this challenge, the authors introduce a novel dual optimization framework based on contrastive learning, which aims to maximize consistency in latent features and improve clustering performance through deep learning models. The framework combines a fine-tuned Vision Transformer with k-nearest neighbors (KNN) to fill in missing views and dynamically adjust view weights using self-supervised learning and meta-learning. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed framework outperforms state-of-the-art clustering models on BDGP and HW datasets, particularly in handling complex and incomplete multi-view data.

The paper proposes a new way to group similar things together when some of the information is missing. This is important because real-world data often has gaps or missing parts. Current methods don’t work well with this type of data, so the authors came up with a new approach using artificial intelligence. They combined two techniques: a special kind of computer vision model and a way to find closest neighbors. This helps fill in the missing information and adjust how important each piece of data is. The results show that their method performs better than others on certain datasets.
