In recent years, multi-view clustering has attracted widespread research interest. However, due to limitations in data collection devices, data across different views often suffer from misalignment, leading to the partial view alignment problem (PVAP). To mitigate the impact of view asymmetry and irrelevant samples, this paper proposes a framework for partial multi-view clustering via dual alignment and structure enhancement (DAS-PMVC), which leverages view structure consistency and semantic relevance. Specifically, DAS-PMVC includes three parts: \textbf{anchor graph structure alignment}, where sample joint embedding representations with consistent latent space are derived from anchor point relationships for initial view alignment; \textbf{structure-enhanced feature learning}, where the model learns view structure information through pretraining and combines multi-view graph convolutional networks to further extract deep latent features from the aligned graph structure to improve the discriminative power of representations; and \textbf{a dual alignment strategy}, where initial alignment is performed through the anchor graph in the pretraining phase, and contrastive learning loss and the Hungarian algorithm are introduced in the training phase to further optimize the alignment of latent features. Experimental results on various datasets demonstrate that the DAS-PMVC framework outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in clustering performance, showcasing its effectiveness and superiority.
Time-series clustering remains challenging due to the inherent trade-off between clustering effectiveness and computational efficiency. Similarity-based methods often suffer from quadratic complexity caused by pairwise distance computations, while deep learning-based approaches typically rely on costly iterative training and a large number of trainable parameters. In this paper, we propose MSRGC-Net, an efficient time-series clustering framework that integrates multiscale reservoir computing, granular-ball-based anchoring graph construction, and consensus learning. MSRGC-Net adopts a training-free reservoir computing paradigm to extract multiscale temporal representations from raw time series without backpropagation, significantly reducing computational overhead. To capture the intrinsic structure of the resulting representations, granular-ball computing is employed to adaptively model data distributions via density-consistent regions, yielding compact and robust anchor graph representations. Furthermore, a consensus-based anchoring graph optimization strategy is introduced to effectively align multiscale reservoir representations and integrate complementary information across temporal scales. Extensive experiments on widely used univariate and multivariate benchmark datasets demonstrate that MSRGC-Net consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in clustering performance while maintaining superior computational efficiency.
