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:2606. 30310v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The Sliced Wasserstein (SW) distance has emerged as a computationally attractive alternative to the Wasserstein distance by leveraging one-dimensional optimal transport along random projections.

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:2412. 20556v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study distributionally robust optimization (DRO) for robust inference when the worst-case distribution is continuous, leading to significant computational challenges due to the infinite-dimensional nature of the optimization problem.
By Linglingzhi Zhu, Yunqin Zhu, Yao Xie
arXiv:2606. 04695v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: High-dimensional optimal transport is seldom available in closed form.

This paper examines how metric adjustments to Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) can enhance its effectiveness as a visual tool for pattern recognition. The distance under consideration, referred to as Max-D-SW, is an adjustment of the Max-Sliced Wasserstein distance.
arXiv:2606. 08113v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A small Wasserstein distance does not certify that a transformation is admissible.

arXiv:2510. 01015v3 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Wasserstein metrics are increasingly adopted as similarity scores for images.

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:2603. 15384v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We improve and extend persistence spheres, introduced in~\cite{pegoraro2025persistence}.

arXiv:2310. 09149v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the approximation of probability measures in the Wasserstein-$p$ distance by structured classes of approximators, motivated by applications in imaging, machine learning, and physical measurement under sensor constraints.
