By combining related objects, unsupervised machine learning techniques aim to reveal the underlying patterns in a data set. Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a data mining technique that splits data matrices by imposing restrictions on the elements' non-negativity into two matrices: one representing the data partitions and the other to represent the cluster prototypes of the data set. This method has attracted a lot of attention and is used in a wide range of applications, including text mining, clustering, language modeling, music transcription, and neuroscience (gene separation). The interpretation of the generated matrices is made simpler by the absence of negative values. In this article, we propose a study on multi-modal clustering algorithms and present a novel method called multi-modal multi-view non-negative matrix factorization, in which we analyze the collaboration of several local NMF models. The experimental results show the value of the proposed approach, which was evaluated using a variety of data sets, and the obtained results are very promising compared to state of art methods.

通过结合相关对象，无监督机器学习技术旨在揭示数据集中的潜在模式。在本文中，我们提出了一项关于多模态聚类算法的研究，并提出了一种名为多模态多视图非负矩阵分解的新方法，其中我们分析了多个局部NMF模型的协同作用。实验结果表明，所提出的方法具有较大的价值，并使用多种数据集进行评估，相比于现有的方法，获得了非常有前景的结果。
