Multi-view learning has become a popular research topic in recent years, but research on the cross-application of classic multi-label classification and multi-view learning is still in its early stages. In this paper, we focus on the complex yet highly realistic task of incomplete multi-view weak multi-label learning and propose a masked two-channel decoupling framework based on deep neural networks to solve this problem. The core innovation of our method lies in decoupling the single-channel view-level representation, which is common in deep multi-view learning methods, into a shared representation and a view-proprietary representation. We also design a cross-channel contrastive loss to enhance the semantic property of the two channels. Additionally, we exploit supervised information to design a label-guided graph regularization loss, helping the extracted embedding features preserve the geometric structure among samples. Inspired by the success of masking mechanisms in image and text analysis, we develop a random fragment masking strategy for vector features to improve the learning ability of encoders. Finally, it is important to emphasize that our model is fully adaptable to arbitrary view and label absences while also performing well on the ideal full data. We have conducted sufficient and convincing experiments to confirm the effectiveness and advancement of our model.

Underwater images often suffer from severe degradation caused by light absorption and scattering, leading to color distortion, low contrast and reduced visibility. Existing Underwater Image Enhancement (UIE) methods can be divided into two categories, i.e., prior-based and learning-based methods. The former rely on rigid physical assumptions that limit the adaptability, while the latter often face data scarcity and weak generalization. To address these issues, we propose a Physics-Semantics-Guided Underwater Image Enhancement Network (PSG-UIENet), which couples the Retinex-grounded illumination correction with the language-informed guidance. This network comprises a Prior-Free Illumination Estimator, a Cross-Modal Text Aligner and a Semantics-Guided Image Restorer. In particular, the restorer leverages the textual descriptions generated by the Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training (CLIP) model to inject high-level semantics for perceptually meaningful guidance. Since multimodal UIE data sets are not publicly available, we also construct a large-scale image-text UIE data set, namely, LUIQD-TD, which contains 6,418 image-reference-text triplets. To explicitly measure and optimize semantic consistency between textual descriptions and images, we further design an Image-Text Semantic Similarity (ITSS) loss function. To our knowledge, this study makes the first effort to introduce both textual guidance and the multimodal data set into UIE tasks. Extensive experiments on our data set and four publicly available data sets demonstrate that the proposed PSG-UIENet achieves superior or comparable performance against fifteen state-of-the-art methods.
