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.
The paper introduces BROT, a two‑step approach for estimating optimal transport maps. First, it computes the unregularized OT plan, then fits a deep neural network to the resulting barycentric targets using least‑squares regression. The authors prove that, under standard regularity conditions, BROT achieves the minimax convergence rate when the true OT map is Lipschitz, and demonstrate its effectiveness on synthetic data, images, and downstream tasks such as single‑cell perturbation prediction and unsupervised domain adaptation.
arXiv:2608. 11613v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we propose a local Sinkhorn divergence framework for conditional distribution reconstruction of multidimensional random fields.
arXiv:2608. 11544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose CVaR-penalized Generative Particle Algorithm (CVaR-GPA), a robust, tail-agnostic algorithm for fine-tuning generative models to learn heavy-tailed distributions and capture extreme events, requiring no prior knowledge or estimation of the target's tail characteristics.
arXiv:2608. 13418v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Given a dataset where a portion of the samples are contaminated, our goal is to recover the underlying clean population distribution.
In this paper, we propose a local Sinkhorn divergence framework for conditional distribution reconstruction of multidimensional random fields. By utilizing the debiased Sinkhorn divergence, our proposed approach develops a differentiable and computationally efficient local distribution matching objective to train stochastic neural networks (SNNs).
