In recent years, there has been a growing focus on multiview data, driven by its rich complementary and consistent information, which has the potential to significantly enhance the performance of downstream tasks. Although many multiview clustering (MVC) methods have achieved promising results by integrating the information of multiple views to learn the consistent representation or consistent graph, these methods typically require complete and entirely accurate correspondences between multiview data, which is challenging to fulfill in practice leading to the problem of partially view-aligned clustering (PVC). To tackle it, we propose a novel method, called dynamic graph guided progressive partial view-aligned clustering (DGPPVC) in this article. To the best of our knowledge, this could be the first work to employ graph convolutional network (GCN) to address the problem of PVC, which explores GCN with dynamic adjacency matrix to reduce unreliable alignments and locate the feature representation with consistent graph structure. In particular, DGPPVC develops an end-to-end framework that encompasses graph construction, feature representation learning, and alignment relationships learning, in which the three parts mutually influence and benefit each other. Moreover, DGPPVC adopts a novel alignment learning strategy that progresses from simplicity to complexity, enabling the step-by-step acquisition of unknown correspondences between different modalities. By giving priority to simple instance pairs, a variant of Jaccard similarities is designed to identify more reliable and complex alignments progressively. During the gradual learning process of alignment relationships, the graph structure matrix is continually and dynamically optimized, thus acquiring a greater variety of graph information between different views. Experiments on several real-world datasets show our promising performance compared with the state-of-the-art methods in partially view-aligned clustering.
