Imputation-free Incomplete Multi-view Clustering via Knowledge Distillation
Benyu Wu, Wei Du*, Jun Wang, Guoxian Yu*

CODE

  • I2MVC is an imputation-free framework for incomplete multi-view clustering, avoiding error accumulation and reducing processing complexity.
  • It uses divide-and-conquer with pseudo-supervised knowledge distillation, enabling single-view-based incomplete data clustering without all views.
