Proposes UKMFS, an unsupervised kernel-based multi-view feature selection model combining RBF kernel pre-processing, low-rank multi-view consistent graph learning, and binary hashing pseudo-labels with an adaptive robust norm for feature selection.
Problem
Unsupervised multi-view feature selection on high-dimensional, possibly nonlinear multi-view data, where separate graph learning and feature selection lose semantic information and are sensitive to noise and outliers.
Approach
Jointly learns a consistent low-rank affinity graph across views via self-representation on RBF-kernel-mapped features, generates binary hash pseudo-labels from the graph Laplacian during spectral embedding, and uses an adaptive loss between Frobenius and l2,1 norms for feature selection, all optimized iteratively in one framework.
Key results
- On Caltech101 at 25% features, UKMFS reaches 70.62% ACC versus 70.42% for JMVFG (the best baseline on that row).
- On HW at 20% features, UKMFS achieves 85.52% ACC, the best among compared methods.
- Ablation shows removing the non-linear kernel process lowers performance relative to full UKMFS (20% features).
Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Add nonlinear RBF kernel preprocessing (ablation) | UKMFS · Multi-view datasets | clustering ACC and NMI | Helped |
| Remove adaptive weight learning and the low-rank constraint on view-specific graphs (ablation) | UKMFS · Multi-view datasets | clustering ACC and NMI | Hurt |
| Replace learnable binary labels with a single-label approach (ablation) | UKMFS · Multi-view datasets | clustering ACC and NMI | Hurt |
Limitations
- Authors note future work is needed to reduce time complexity and improve efficiency.
- Parameter tuning via grid search over several hyperparameters (alpha, beta, gamma, hash length, anchor count).
