Recent multi-view subspace clustering achieves impressive results utilizing deep networks, where the self-expressive correlation is typically modeled by a fully connected (FC) layer. However, they still suffer from two limitations. i) The parameter scale of the FC layer is quadratic to sample numbers, resulting in high time and memory costs that significantly degrade their feasibility in large-scale datasets. ii) It is under-explored to extract a unified representation that simultaneously satisfies minimal sufficiency and discriminability. To this end, we propose a novel deep framework, termed Efficient and Effective deep Multi-View Subspace Clustering (E$^2$MVSC). Instead of a parameterized FC layer, we design a Relation-Metric Net that decouples network parameter scale from sample numbers for greater computational efficiency. Most importantly, the proposed method devises a multi-type auto-encoder to explicitly decouple consistent, complementary, and superfluous information from every view, which is supervised by a soft clustering assignment similarity constraint. Following information bottleneck theory and the maximal coding rate reduction principle, a sufficient yet minimal unified representation can be obtained, as well as pursuing intra-cluster aggregation and inter-cluster separability within it. Extensive experiments show that E$^2$MVSC yields comparable results to existing methods and achieves state-of-the-art performance in various types of multi-view datasets.

This paper addresses the challenges of data privacy and collaborative modeling in cross-institution financial risk analysis. It proposes a risk assessment framework based on federated learning. Without sharing raw data, the method enables joint modeling and risk identification across multiple institutions. This is achieved by incorporating a feature attention mechanism and temporal modeling structure. Specifically, the model adopts a distributed optimization strategy. Each financial institution trains a local sub-model. The model parameters are protected using differential privacy and noise injection before being uploaded. A central server then aggregates these parameters to generate a global model. This global model is used for systemic risk identification. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, multiple experiments are conducted. These evaluate communication efficiency, model accuracy, systemic risk detection, and cross-market generalization. The results show that the proposed model outperforms both traditional centralized methods and existing federated learning variants across all evaluation metrics. It demonstrates strong modeling capabilities and practical value in sensitive financial environments. The method enhances the scope and efficiency of risk identification while preserving data sovereignty. It offers a secure and efficient solution for intelligent financial risk analysis.
