Multi-view data are increasingly prevalent in practice. It is often relevant to analyze the relationships between pairs of views by multi-view component analysis techniques such as Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA). However, data may easily exhibit nonlinear relations, which CCA cannot reveal. We aim to investigate the usefulness of nonlinear multi-view relations to characterize multi-view data in an explainable manner. To address this challenge, we propose a method to characterize globally nonlinear multi-view relationships as a mixture of linear relationships. A clustering method, it identifies partitions of observations that exhibit the same relationships and learns those relationships simultaneously. It defines cluster variables by multi-view rather than spatial relationships, unlike almost all other clustering methods. Furthermore, we introduce a supervised classification method that builds on our clustering method by employing multi-view relationships as discriminative factors. The value of these methods resides in their capability to find useful structure in the data that single-view or current multi-view methods may struggle to find. We demonstrate the potential utility of the proposed approach using an application in clinical informatics to detect and characterize slow bleeding in patients whose central venous pressure (CVP) is monitored at the bedside. Presently, CVP is considered an insensitive measure of a subjects intravascular volume status or its change. However, we reason that features of CVP during inspiration and expiration should be informative in early identification of emerging changes of patient status. We empirically show how the proposed method can help discover and analyze multiple-to-multiple correlations, which could be nonlinear or vary throughout the population, by finding explainable structure of operational interest to practitioners.

In many scientific problems such as video surveillance, modern genomic analysis, and clinical studies, data are often collected from diverse domains across time that exhibit time-dependent heterogeneous properties. It is important to not only integra te data from multiple sources (called multiview data), but also to incorporate time dependency for deep understanding of the underlying system. Latent factor models are popular tools for exploring multi-view data. However, it is frequently observed that these models do not perform well for complex systems and they are not applicable to time-series data. Therefore, we propose a generative model based on variational autoencoder and recurrent neural network to infer the latent dynamic factors for multivariate timeseries data. This approach allows us to identify the disentangled latent embeddings across multiple modalities while accounting for the time factor. We invoke our proposed model for analyzing three datasets on which we demonstrate the effectiveness and the interpretability of the model.

Discovery of causal relationships from observational data is an important problem in many areas. Several recent results have established the identifiability of causal DAGs with non-Gaussian and/or nonlinear structural equation models (SEMs). In this paper, we focus on nonlinear SEMs defined by non-invertible functions, which exist in many data domains, and propose a novel test for non-invertible bivariate causal models. We further develop a method to incorporate this test in structure learning of DAGs that contain both linear and nonlinear causal relations. By extensive numerical comparisons, we show that our algorithms outperform existing DAG learning methods in identifying causal graphical structures. We illustrate the practical application of our method in learning causal networks for combinatorial binding of transcription factors from ChIP-Seq data.
Factor analysis aims to determine latent factors, or traits, which summarize a given data set. Inter-battery factor analysis extends this notion to multiple views of the data. In this paper we show how a nonlinear, nonparametric version of these mode ls can be recovered through the Gaussian process latent variable model. This gives us a flexible formalism for multi-view learning where the latent variables can be used both for exploratory purposes and for learning representations that enable efficient inference for ambiguous estimation tasks. Learning is performed in a Bayesian manner through the formulation of a variational compression scheme which gives a rigorous lower bound on the log likelihood. Our Bayesian framework provides strong regularization during training, allowing the structure of the latent space to be determined efficiently and automatically. We demonstrate this by producing the first (to our knowledge) published results of learning from dozens of views, even when data is scarce. We further show experimental results on several different types of multi-view data sets and for different kinds of tasks, including exploratory data analysis, generation, ambiguity modelling through latent priors and classification.
In biomedical research, many different types of patient data can be collected, such as various types of omics data and medical imaging modalities. Applying multi-view learning to these different sources of information can increase the accuracy of med ical classification models compared with single-view procedures. However, collecting biomedical data can be expensive and/or burdening for patients, so that it is important to reduce the amount of required data collection. It is therefore necessary to develop multi-view learning methods which can accurately identify those views that are most important for prediction. In recent years, several biomedical studies have used an approach known as multi-view stacking (MVS), where a model is trained on each view separately and the resulting predictions are combined through stacking. In these studies, MVS has been shown to increase classification accuracy. However, the MVS framework can also be used for selecting a subset of important views. To study the view selection potential of MVS, we develop a special case called stacked penalized logistic regression (StaPLR). Compared with existing view-selection methods, StaPLR can make use of faster optimization algorithms and is easily parallelized. We show that nonnegativity constraints on the parameters of the function which combines the views play an important role in preventing unimportant views from entering the model. We investigate the performance of StaPLR through simulations, and consider two real data examples. We compare the performance of StaPLR with an existing view selection method called the group lasso and observe that, in terms of view selection, StaPLR is often more conservative and has a consistently lower false positive rate.

Self-supervised metric learning has been a successful approach for learning a distance from an unlabeled dataset. The resulting distance is broadly useful for improving various distance-based downstream tasks, even when no information from downstream tasks is utilized in the metric learning stage. To gain insights into this approach, we develop a statistical framework to theoretically study how self-supervised metric learning can benefit downstream tasks in the context of multi-view data. Under this framework, we show that the target distance of metric learning satisfies several desired properties for the downstream tasks. On the other hand, our investigation suggests the target distance can be further improved by moderating each directions weights. In addition, our analysis precisely characterizes the improvement by self-supervised metric learning on four commonly used downstream tasks: sample identification, two-sample testing, $k$-means clustering, and $k$-nearest neighbor classification. As a by-product, we propose a simple spectral method for self-supervised metric learning, which is computationally efficient and minimax optimal for estimating target distance. Finally, numerical experiments are presented to support the theoretical results in the paper.
