Zusammenfassung:Spectral clustering is a popular tool in many unsupervised computer vision and machine learning tasks. Recently, due to the encouraging performance of deep neural networks, many conventional spectral clustering methods have been extended to the deep framework. Although these deep spectral clustering methods are quite powerful and effective, learning the cluster number from data is still a challenge. In this paper, we aim to tackle this problem by integrating the spectral clustering, generative adversarial network and low rank model within a unified Bayesian framework. First, we adapt the low rank method to the cluster number estimation problem. Then, an adversarial-learning-based deep clustering method is proposed and incorporated. When introducing the spectral clustering method into our model clustering procedure, a hidden space structure preservation term is proposed. Via a Bayesian framework, the structure preservation term is embedded into the generative process, which can then be used to deduce a spectral clustering in the optimization procedure. Finally, we derive a variational-inference-based method and embed it into the network optimization and learning procedure. Experiments on different datasets prove that our model has the cluster number estimation capability and show that our method can outperform many similar graph clustering methods
