Tensorized Incomplete Multi-View Clustering (TIMVC) algorithms have attracted growing attention for their ability to capture high-order correlations across multiple views. However, most existing TIMVC methods rely on simplistic noise assumptions using specific norms (e.g., $\ell_1$ or $\ell_{2,1}$), which fail to reflect the complex noise patterns encountered in real-world scenarios. Moreover, they primarily focus on modeling the global Euclidean structure of the tensor representation, while overlooking the preservation of local manifold structures. To address these limitations, we propose a novel approach, GaUssian regressIon-driven TIMVC with dual mAnifold Regularization (GUITAR). Specifically, we employ a Gaussian regression model to characterize complex noise distributions in a more realistic and flexible manner. Meanwhile, a dual manifold regularization is introduced in tensor representation learning, simultaneously modeling manifold information at both the view-specific and cross-view consensus levels, thereby promoting intra-view and inter-view consistency in the tensor representation. Furthermore, to better capture the intrinsic low-rank structure, we propose the high-preservation $\ell_{\delta}$-norm tensor rank constraint, which applies differentiated penalties to the singular values, thereby enhancing the robustness of the tensor representation. In addition, an efficient optimization algorithm is developed to solve the resulting non-convex problem with provable convergence. Extensive experiments on six datasets demonstrate that our method outperforms SOTA approaches.
