## Project Overview
mvcluster is an open-source Python package developed during my research internship at Centre Borelli (Université Paris Cité) from April to July 2025. The package implements advanced algorithms for multiview clustering, with a focus on graph-structured data.

## Key Features
- Implementation of LMGEC (Linear Multiview Graph Embedding and Clustering) algorithm  
- Standardized scikit-learn compatible API  
- Comprehensive documentation and examples  
- Extensive test coverage (>90%)  
- Support for multiple multiview datasets  
- Visualization tools for clustering results  

## Installation

```bash
pip install mvcluster
```

## Requirements:

- Python ≥ 3.8

- numpy ≥ 1.21

- scipy ≥ 1.7

- scikit-learn ≥ 1.0

- torch ≥ 1.9.0 (optional for GPU acceleration)

- networkx ≥ 2.6
  
## Quick Start
```bash
from mvcluster.cluster import LMGEC
from mvcluster.utils.datagen import datagen
# Load sample dataset
As, Xs, y = datagen('dblp')

# Initialize and fit LMGEC model
model = LMGEC(beta=2, temperature=10)
labels = model.fit_predict(X)

# Evaluate clustering
from sklearn.metrics import adjusted_rand_score
print(f"ARI: {adjusted_rand_score(y, labels):.3f}")
```

## Documentation
