Quantile-Calibrated Multi-Scale Spectral Regularizer
Build several Gaussian similarity matrices on minibatch embeddings, using empirical distance quantiles as their bandwidths, then combine them before degree normalization and spectral embedding. Add a regularizer that encourages the resulting row-normalized spectral coordinates to form compact pseudo-clusters, making the representation robust to multiple geometric scales rather than one manually tuned temperature.
