Generative Diffusion Contrastive Network for Multi-View Clustering

In recent years, Multi-View Clustering (MVC) has been significantly advanced under the influence of deep learning. By integrating heterogeneous data from multiple views, MVC enhances clustering analysis, making multi-view fusion critical to clustering performance. However, there is a problem of low-quality data in multi-view fusion. This problem primarily arises from two reasons: 1) Certain views are contaminated by noisy data. 2) Some views suffer from missing data. This paper proposes a novel Stochastic Generative Diffusion Fusion (SGDF) method to address this problem. SGDF leverages a multiple generative mechanism for the multi-view feature of each sample. It is robust to low-quality data. Building on SGDF, we further present the Generative Diffusion Contrastive Network (GDCN). Extensive experiments show that GDCN achieves the state-of-the-art results in deep MVC tasks. The source code is publicly available at https://github.com/HackerHyper/GDCN.

Learning Disentangled Representations for Generalized Multi-view Clustering

Multi-View Clustering (MVC) has gained significant attention for its ability to leverage complementary information across diverse views. However, existing deep MVC methods often struggle with view-distribution entanglement during cross-view fusion, which hampers the quality of the shared latent space and leads to suboptimal Figures. To address this issue, we propose the Generalized Multi-view Auto-Encoder (GMAE), a framework designed to preserve cross-view complementarity through disentangled representation learning. Specifically, GMAE employs dual-path autoencoders to decouple source features into view-specific and view-common embeddings, facilitating the discovery of clearer clustering structures. We further construct cross-view adversarial discriminators to guide view-specific encoders in capturing more discriminative features. By strategically modulating mutual information, GMAE effectively aligns distributions and prevents representation collapse, ensuring the generation of robust, non-trivial embeddings. Comprehensive experiments on 13 benchmark datasets demonstrate that GMAE consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both complete and incomplete MVC tasks. Our code implementation is available at the repository: https://github.com/obananas/GMAE.

Vision-Language Introspection: Mitigating Overconfident Hallucinations in MLLMs via Interpretable Bi-Causal Steering

Object hallucination critically undermines the reliability of Multimodal Large Language Models, often stemming from a fundamental failure in cognitive introspection, where models blindly trust linguistic priors over specific visual evidence. Existing mitigations remain limited: contrastive decoding approaches operate superficially without rectifying internal semantic misalignments, while current latent steering methods rely on static vectors that lack instance-specific precision. We introduce Vision-Language Introspection (VLI), a training-free inference framework that simulates a metacognitive self-correction process. VLI first performs Attributive Introspection to diagnose hallucination risks via probabilistic conflict detection and localize the causal visual anchors. It then employs Interpretable Bi-Causal Steering to actively modulate the inference process, dynamically isolating visual evidence from background noise while neutralizing blind confidence through adaptive calibration. VLI achieves state-of-the-art performance on advanced models, reducing object hallucination rates by 12.67% on MMHal-Bench and improving accuracy by 5.8% on POPE.
