Proposes RISE, a bipartite-graph spectral embedding method for incomplete multi-view clustering that recovers a consensus embedding with second-order rotation invariance and solves it with a fast SVD-based alternating optimization of linear complexity.
Problem
Incomplete multi-view clustering suffers from missing views/instances, high computational cost of graph-based completion, and spectral embedding rotational mismatch across views with incomplete data.
Approach
Learn view-specific spectral embeddings from incomplete anchor-based bipartite graphs and jointly recover a complete consensus embedding via a second-order (YY^T vs. F F^T) rotation-invariant term; the alternating updates reduce to SVDs of concatenated small matrices, giving linear complexity in n.
Key results
- On Prokaryotic, RISE reaches 75.13 ACC versus 60.42 for the second-best SIMVC-SA (averaged over nine missing ratios).
- On YoutubeFace, RISE runs in 899.54 s versus 3209.01 s for SIMVC-SA, and is fastest on all datasets except Caltech101-7.
- RISE is reported to be about 10x faster than the first-order completion strategy on Prokaryotic and about 100x faster on Caltech101-7.

Surprising findings
- On Wikipedia, RISE's NMI (35.78) is lower than several baselines such as SIMVC-SA (39.18) and IMVC-CBG (37.96).
Limitations
- Performance depends on hyperparameters beta, anchor number m, and embedding dimension k, which require tuning.
- Authors note that developing a parameter-free model needs more attention.
- Full-similarity-graph variant cannot use the simplified SVD update, so bipartite graphs are required for efficiency.
