Abstract

highlights how to mitigate the differences between vision and touch, and further maximize the mutual information, which adopts a minimizing disagreement scheme to guide the modality-specific representations toward a unified affinity graph. To achieve ideal clustering performance, a Laplacian rank constraint is imposed to regularize the learned graph with ideal connected components, where noises that caused wrong connections are removed and clustering labels can be obtained directly. Finally, we propose an efficient alternating iterative minimization updating strategy, followed by a theoretical proof to prove framework convergence. Comprehensive experiments on five public datasets demonstrate the superiority of the proposed framework.
