Optimal Transport for Machine Learners

arXiv:2505. 06589v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern machine learning repeatedly manipulates probability measures: empirical datasets, generated samples, latent distributions, class-conditional laws, particle systems, weights of wide networks and attention patterns.

Learning from samples: inverse problems over measures

arXiv:2505. 07124v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study inverse problems where an unknown potential is observed only through samples from the measure it induces by a convex variational principle.

Sample complexity of unbalanced entropic OT

arXiv:2606. 24987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Optimal transport (OT) has become a central language for comparing probability measures, but exact balanced OT is often both too rigid for data with missing, created, or destroyed mass and subject to unfavorable high-dimensional sample complexity.

Inverse Entropic Optimal Transport Solves Semi-supervised Learning via Data Likelihood Maximization

arXiv:2410. 02628v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Learning conditional distributions $\pi^*(\cdot|x)$ is a central problem in machine learning, which is typically approached via supervised methods with paired data $(x,y) \sim \pi^*$.
