Abstract

Nonnegative matrix factorization (NMF) based multiview technique has been commonly used in multiview data clustering tasks. However, previous NMF based multiview clustering approaches fail to take advantage of a small amount of supervisory information to effectively improve the clustering performance, and are easily affected by the additional post-processing method in clustering tasks. To cope with these issues, a novel framework named multiview clustering via hypergraph induced semi-supervised symmetric NMF (MVCHSS) is proposed in this paper for multiview data clustering applications. Specifically, the proposed method has the following features: 1) a new multiview based hypergraph pairwise constraints propagation (MHPCP) algorithm is developed in MVCHSS to construct a set of informative similarity matrices, revealing the high-order relationships effectively and fully utilizing the limited pairwise constraint supervisory information among samples of each view data; 2) the obtained similarity matrices with much supervisory information are not only enforced into the symmetric NMF (SNMF) model, but also incorporated into the graph regularization for each view data; 3) the optimization problem of MVCHSS is formulated for multiview data clustering tasks to acquire a more discriminative clustering indicator matrix (or called consensus assignment matrix) without additional post-processing method. Moreover, the proof of convergence and the computational complexity for MVCHSS are presented. Extensive experiments on five multiview datasets demonstrate that the proposed MVCHSS framework outperforms several state-of-the-art multiview clustering methods.
