arXiv:2603. 24025v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Unsupervised learning of high-dimensional data is challenging due to irrelevant or noisy features obscuring underlying structures.
The paper introduces Inverted Contrastive Learning for Unsupervised Feature Selection (ICLFS), a method that treats each feature as a sample by inverting the data matrix and applies a contrastive learning framework to learn consistent representations across masked positive views and a shuffled negative view. Feature saliency is derived from the magnitude of projector‑space embeddings, and a Laplacian‑Gated Ranking Correction step refines the ranking by reducing local redundancy. Experiments on 12 benchmark datasets show that ICLFS achieves the best clustering accuracy on 10 datasets compared to both classical and neural baselines, demonstrating the effectiveness of feature‑wise contrastive consistency for unsupervised feature selection.
