The paper introduces a deep learning framework for regression with random objects in metric spaces, bypassing restrictive manifold or Euclidean embedding assumptions. It provides statistical consistency, convergence rates, and conditions that mitigate the curse of dimensionality for hierarchically compositional regression functions. Extensive simulations and two digital health case studies with distribution-valued outcomes demonstrate competitive predictive performance over existing methods.

The paper introduces Constant‑Curvature Sliced Gromov‑Wasserstein (CCSGW), a new divergence for aligning probability distributions on heterogeneous constant‑curvature spaces such as hyperbolic and spherical manifolds. It extends sliced Gromov‑Wasserstein by adding geodesic‑based one‑dimensional projections for spherical spaces, enabling efficient and principled comparison across manifolds with different curvatures while preserving intrinsic geometric relationships. The authors provide theoretical analysis showing that CCSGW controls intrinsic geometric discrepancy and demonstrate consistent performance gains when integrated into mixed‑curvature learning tasks like graph anomaly detection, node classification, and multimodal learning.
The paper introduces a Nested Inductive Bias framework that uses a two‑stage diffeomorphic composition to pull back non‑Euclidean target geometries onto symmetric positive definite (SPD) manifolds. This approach allows the construction of curvature‑aligned Riemannian classifiers that respect both matrix constraints and the intrinsic relational geometry of data. Empirical results on kinematic, signal processing, and synthetic benchmarks show that class separability degrades when metric curvature does not match the data distribution, and the authors also propose the Rational Conformal Metric (RCM) for robust vectorized architectures.
arXiv:2606. 14334v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-dimensional datasets often concentrate near low-dimensional structures, but estimating their geometry from samples typically relies on graphs and kernels that scale poorly with dataset size and dimension.
The paper introduces LOT Wassmap, an algorithm designed to uncover low‑dimensional structures in the Wasserstein space without computing a full pairwise distance matrix. It leverages approximation schemes such as Sinkhorn distances and linearized optimal transport to accelerate computations, and provides theoretical guarantees on embedding quality even when only finite samples are available. Experiments show that LOT Wassmap achieves accurate embeddings that improve with larger sample sizes while significantly reducing computational cost compared to traditional pairwise‑distance‑based methods.
