RHEA: Reliability-Harmonized Reconstruction and Assignment for Robust Multimodal-Attributed Graph Clustering

arXiv:2608. 00621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal-attributed graphs (MAGs), whose nodes carry heterogeneous attributes such as text and images over a relational structure, have become a fundamental substrate for label-free entity grouping tasks, including community discovery and product segmentation.

Robust Graph Clustering Network for Multiple Missing Data

The paper introduces the Robust Graph Clustering Network for Multiple Missing Data (RGCN), a method designed to cluster graphs with simultaneous missing node attributes and structural links. RGCN employs a view‑decoupled dual‑branch imputation to reduce cross‑view interference, a multi‑hyperspherical mixture prior to improve cluster compactness and separability on a directional latent manifold, and a boundary‑aware contrastive enhancement objective to counteract cluster blurring caused by imputation bias. Experiments on real‑world datasets show that RGCN consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines across various missing data patterns.

MURAL: Multimodal Uncertainty-aware Recommendation via Adaptive edge Learning

MURAL is a multimodal recommendation framework that replaces static similarity graphs with a dynamic topology discovery process. It uses an Adaptive Edge Learner to find latent item-item correlations efficiently and an Uncertainty-Aware Fusion module to down‑weight noisy modality signals based on aleatoric uncertainty. The model also incorporates a contrastive teacher‑student alignment to stabilize training and has been shown to outperform state‑of‑the‑art baselines on large‑scale TikTok and Amazon datasets, providing both higher accuracy and interpretability.
