arXiv:2605. 10792v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose an implicit neural formulation of optimal transport that eliminates adversarial min--max optimization and multi-network architectures commonly used in existing approaches.
The paper introduces COFM, a framework for consistent optimal transport flow matching that uses partially input convex neural networks (PICNN) to parameterize the transport potential. By adding a Hamilton‑Jacobi residual to the training objective, COFM enforces dynamical consistency and supports both one‑step transport and multi‑step ODE sampling without costly inner optimization. Experiments on benchmark datasets show that COFM achieves competitive performance while reducing L^2‑UVP by over 2× and cutting computational time by about 9× compared to state‑of‑the‑art models.
The paper introduces a low-budget active learning approach that selects a small coreset of data points for training high-accuracy models, particularly useful when labeling is expensive, such as in medical contexts. It uses features from a pretrained self-supervised model and applies entropic optimal transport—specifically the Sinkhorn divergence—as the selection criterion, enabling dimension-free sample complexity and efficient gradient-based optimization. The method combines gradient-based candidate generation with a swap-based local search, achieving superior performance over existing heuristics on image and medical datasets.

arXiv:2606. 14023v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Optimal Transport has become recently a powerful method for domain adaptation by aligning source and target distributions.
Point cloud denoising is essentially a geometric recovery task that aims to reconstruct the intrinsic structure of a smooth 2D Riemannian manifold embedded in R^3 from noisy, discrete ambient-space samples. Despite the remarkable progress of modern manifold-aware encoders and generative transport models in geometric representation learning, a fundamental objective-geometry mismatch remains underexplored.
