Usually, previous multi-view learning methods assume complete views. However, multi-view data are often incomplete, namely some samples have incomplete feature sets. Besides, most data are unlabeled due to a large cost of manual annotation, which makes learning of such data a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose a novel subspace learning framework for incomplete and unlabeled multi-view data. The model directly optimizes the class indicator matrix, which establishes a bridge for incomplete feature sets. Besides, feature selection is considered to deal with high dimensional and noisy features. Furthermore, the inter-view and intra-view data similarities are preserved to enhance the model. To these ends, an objective is developed along with an e?cient optimization strategy. Finally, extensive experiments are conducted for multi-view clustering and cross-modal retrieval, achieving the state-of-the-art performance under various settings. ? 2017 Elsevier Ltd.
