arXiv:2605. 14981v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Gromov--Wasserstein (GW) distances compare graphs, shapes, and point clouds through internal distances, without requiring a common coordinate system.

arXiv:2607. 06646v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper introduces Diffusion Semi-Relaxed Fused Gromov-Wasserstein (DsrFGW), a novel method for graph comparison that unifies node features and structural connectivity through optimal transport.

arXiv:2606. 10295v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The Gromov--Wasserstein (GW) distance provides a framework for comparing metric measure spaces, regardless of their underlying structure or geometry.

arXiv:2606. 02047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Convex Distance Operator Transport (CDOT), the first convex optimal transport framework that aligns distributions across heterogeneous domains by jointly preserving feature correspondence and intrinsic geometric structure.

arXiv:2608. 04234v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the problem of aligning data from multiple modalities into a shared representation space, focusing on settings where strong pretrained unimodal encoders are available but cross-modal paired data are scarce.

arXiv:2606. 02223v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Estimating the generative mechanism of large-scale networks is a fundamental challenge in statistical machine learning.

arXiv:2405. 15768v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we address the classification of instances represented by distributions on a vector space rather than single points.

arXiv:2606. 18317v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Most graph neural network (GNN) cores rely on graph convolutions, typically implemented as message passing between direct (single-hop) neighbors.

arXiv:2608. 06860v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Hyperdimensional computing (HDC) is an approach from the cognitive science literature for solving information processing tasks using data represented as high-dimensional random vectors.

arXiv:2512. 02694v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose the first return time distribution (FRTD) of a random walk as an interpretable and mathematically grounded node embedding.

arXiv:2607. 08746v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While UMAP is widely used for exploring high-dimensional data, typical workflows focus on its lower-dimensional embedding, largely overlooking the rich k-nearest-neighbor (kNN) graph that UMAP constructs internally.

arXiv:2605. 09916v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce the observable Wasserstein distance, a framework for deriving lower bounds on the Wasserstein distance between probability measures on Polish metric spaces, designed to bypass the computational intractability of exact optimal transport in large-scale, non-Euclidean datasets.
