Several methods are proposed to keep on exploiting the correlation of different views. One straightforward way is completing the missing views,andthentheon-shelf multi-viewlearning algorithmscould beadopted. Themissing views are basically blockwise and thus low-rank based completion [12, 13] is not applicable which has been widely recognized [5, 14]. Missing modality imputation methods [15, 5] usually require samples with two paired modalities to train the networks which can predict the missing modality fromtheobservedone.

Despite multi-view learning progressed fast in past decades, it is still challenging due to the difficulty in modeling complex correlation among different views, especially under the context of view missing. To address the challenge, we propose a novel framework termed Cross Partial Multi-View Networks (CPM-Nets). In this framework, we first give a formal definition of completeness and versatility for multi-view representation and then theoretically prove the versatility of the latent representation learned from our algorithm. To achieve the completeness, the task of learning latent multi-view representation is specifically translated to degradation process through mimicking data transmitting, such that the optimal tradeoff between consistence and complementarity across different views could be achieved. In contrast with methods that either complete missing views or group samples according to view-missing patterns, our model fully exploits all samples and all views to produce structured representation for interpretability.

In the real-word applications, data is usually represented in different views, including multiple modalities or multiple types of features.
