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. 30523v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Covariance matrices serve as compact descriptors of feature distributions in many machine-learning pipelines, including domain adaptation and Gaussian embeddings.

arXiv:2605. 30253v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study the contraction in Wasserstein distance of the coordinate ascent variational inference algorithm.

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:2411. 15067v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We investigate proximal descent methods, inspired by the minimizing movement scheme introduced by Jordan, Kinderlehrer and Otto, for optimizing entropy-regularized functionals on the Wasserstein space.
