As a kind of special graph of structured data, a hypergraph can intuitively describe not only the higher-order relation and complex connection mode between nodes but also the implicit relation between nodes. Aiming at the limitation of traditional distance measurement in high-dimensional data, a new method of hypergraph construction based on set pair theory is proposed in this paper. By means of dividing the relationship between data attributes, the set pair connection degree between samples is calculated, and the set pair distance between samples is obtained. Then, on the basis of set pair distance, the combination technique of k-nearest neighbor and ε radius is used to construct a hypergraph, and high-dimensional expression and hypergraph clustering are demonstrated experimentally. By performing experiments on different datasets on the Kaggle open-source dataset platform, the comparison of cluster purity, the Rand coefficient, and normalized mutual information are shown to demonstrate that this distance measurement method is more effective in high-dimensional expression and exhibits a more significant performance improvement in spectral clustering.

Graph-based semi-supervised multi-view clustering has demonstrated promising performance and gained significant attention due to its capability to handle sample spaces with arbitrary shapes. Nevertheless, the ordinary graph employed by most existing semi-supervised multi-view clustering methods only captures the pairwise relationships between samples, and cannot fully explore the higher-order information and complex structure among multiple sample points. Additionally, most existing methods do not make full use of the complementary information and spatial structure contained in multi-view data, which is crucial to clustering results. We propose a novel hypergraph learning-based semi-supervised multi-view spectral clustering approach to overcome these limitations. Specifically, the proposed method fully considers the relationship between multiple sample points and utilizes hypergraph-induced hyper-Laplacian matrices to preserve the high-order geometrical structure in data. Based on the principle of complementarity and consistency between views, this method simultaneously learns indicator matrices of all views and harnesses the tensor Schatten p-norm to extract both complementary information and low-rank spatial structure within these views. Furthermore, we introduce an auto-weighted strategy to address the discrepancy between singular values, enhancing the robustness and stability of the algorithm. Detailed experimental results on various datasets demonstrate that our approach surpasses existing state-of-the-art semi-supervised multi-view clustering methods. Full article

Community structure is crucial for understanding network characteristics, and the local expansion method has performed well in detecting community structures. However, there are two problems with this method. Firstly, it can only add nodes or edges on the basis of existing clusters, and secondly, it can produce a large number of small communities. In this paper, we extend the local expansion method based on ordinary graph to hypergraph, and propose an effective hypernetwork community detection algorithm based on local expansion (LE) and global fusion (GF), which is referred to as HLEGF. The LE process obtains multiple small sub-hypergraphs by deleting and adding hyperedges, while the GF process optimizes the sub-hypergraphs generated by the local expansion process. To solve the first problem, the HLEGF algorithm introduces the concepts of community neighborhood and community boundary to delete some nodes and hyperedges in hypergraphs. To solve the second problem, the HLEGF algorithm establishes correlations between adjacent sub-hypergraphs through global fusion. We evaluated the performance of the HLEGF algorithm in the real hypernetwork and six synthetic random hypernetworks with different probabilities. Because the HLEGF algorithm introduces the concepts of community boundary and neighborhood, and the concept of a series of similarities, the algorithm has superiority. In the real hypernetwork, the HLEGF algorithm is consistent with the classical Spectral algorithm, while in the random hypernetwork, when the probability is not less than 0.95, the NMI value of the HLEGF algorithm is always greater than 0.92, and the RI value is always greater than 0.97. When the probability is 0.95, the HLEGF algorithm achieves a 2.3% improvement in the NMI value, compared to the Spectral algorithm. Finally, we applied the HLEGF algorithm to the drug–target hypernetwork to partition drugs with similar functions into communities. Full article
