Proposes DRLS, a VAE-based method for doubly incomplete multi-view multi-label classification that disentangles view-consistent and view-specific features via a mutual-information upper bound and learns label semantic embeddings with a GIN-based VGAE.
Problem
Doubly incomplete multi-view multi-label classification (DIMVMLC), where both views and labels are missing, and where view-shared and view-specific information are poorly separated.
Approach
Combine cross-view reconstruction with a PoE-fused consistent posterior, pre-train consistent encoders, then minimize a variational upper bound on mutual information between consistent and specific features; label semantic embeddings are learned with a GIN-based variational graph autoencoder over a label co-occurrence graph and used for feature selection.
Key results
- On Corel5k with 50% missing views and labels, DRLS reaches AP 0.433 and AUC 0.918 versus 0.416 AP and 0.912 AUC for the next best (SIP).
- DRLS ranks first on average across all five datasets under the 50% view and 50% label missing setting (Ave.R 1.000).
- Ablation on Corel5k shows removing the disentangling loss drops AP from 0.433 to 0.414 and removing the consistent KL term drops AP to 0.415.

Limitations
- Missing labels are treated as negatives for baselines that cannot handle them, and missingness is simulated with random 50% removal only.
- Disentanglement relies on a two-stage pre-training and then fine-tuning schedule, adding optimization complexity to tune.
