Owing to its ability to handle negative data and promising clustering performance, concept factorization (CF), an improved version of non-negative matrix factorization, has been incorporated into multi-view clustering recently. Nevertheless, existing CF-based multi-view clustering methods still have the following issues: (1) they directly conduct factorization in the original data space, which means its efficiency is sensitive to the feature dimension; (2) they ignore the high degree of factorization freedom of standard CF, which may lead to non-uniqueness factorization thereby causing reduced effectiveness; (3) traditional robust norms they used are unable to handle complex noises, significantly challenging their robustness. To address these issues, we establish a fast multi-view clustering via correntropy-based orthogonal concept factorization (FMVCCF). Specifically, FMVCCF executes factorization on a learned consensus anchor graph rather than directly decomposing the original data, lessening the dimensionality sensitivity. Then, a lightweight graph regularization term is incorporated to refine the factorization process with a low computational burden. Moreover, an improved multi-view correntropy-based orthogonal CF model is developed, which can enhance the effectiveness and robustness under the orthogonal constraint and correntropy criterion, respectively. Extensive experiments demonstrate that FMVCCF can achieve promising effectiveness and robustness on various real-world datasets with high efficiency., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd.

The normalized subband adaptive filtering algorithm provides fast convergence rate for colored input signals as compared to the normalized least mean square algorithm, but it suffers from a poor convergence issue in the α -stable noise. In light of this, the normalized subband p-norm (NSPN) algorithm, which is based on the least mean p-power error (MPE) criterion, is proposed in this study. This technique is not only robust against impulsive noise samples, but it also maintains a fast convergence rate when colored input signals are used. In addition to this, we develop both the steady-state and the transient models of the NSPN algorithm and provide some insights. Then, in order to solve the problem of making a choice regarding the order p in the NSPN algorithm, we design an autonomous system and come up with the NSPN algorithm with a variable p-norm (VP-NSPN). In addition, we offer the TFC-based VP-NSPN algorithm with a fast convergence rate and low steady-state misadjustment simultaneously by making use of the tap-weights feedback-based convex combination (TFC) scheme. In conclusion, simulation results on system identification and acoustic echo cancellation are undertaken in order to validate the superiority of the proposed algorithms and validate the usefulness of the theoretical analysis.

Graph-based clustering commonly provides promising clustering effectiveness as it can preserve samples' local geometric information. Inspired by it, multi-view graph clustering was developed to integrate complementary information among graphs of diverse views and it has received intensive attention recently. Nevertheless, on the one hand, most existing methods require extra k-means after obtaining embedding representations to generate a discrete cluster indicator, which reduces effectiveness due to the two-stage mismatch. On the other hand, numerous complex noises in real-world multi-view data challenge the robustness of existing clustering methods. In this paper, we established a discrete correntropy-based multi-view anchor-graph clustering (DCMAC) model that not only emphasizes the aforementioned issues but also makes use of anchor graphs to improve the efficiency of the graph construction stage. To optimize this non-convex model, we propose a fast half-quadratic-based coordinate descent strategy to acquire the discrete cluster indicator directly without extra k-means. Furthermore, we extend the DCMAC model to a single-view form and provide optimization strategies for it. Extensive experiments illustrate that the proposed method is effective and robust compared to those advanced baselines. • A new discrete correntropy-based multi-view anchor-graph clustering (DCMAC) model is proposed. • A novel half-quadratic-based coordinate descent algorithm is proposed to solve the DCMAC model. • To handle single-view clustering instances, DCMAC is extended to a single-view form named DCAC. • Numerous experiments demonstrate the outstanding effectiveness and robustness of DCMAC.
