In this Doctoral Dissertation we propose new variational principles for traffic assignment problems. So to find equillibrium we have to solve large-scale convex optimization problem of special (multilevel) type. We propose different…
A recent paper by Cordero-Erausquin and Klartag provides a characterization of the measures $\mu$ on $\R^d$ which can be expressed as the moment measures of suitable convex functions $u$, i.e. are of the form $(\nabla u)\_\\#e^{- u}$ for…
We consider regression problems with binary weights. Such optimization problems are ubiquitous in quantized learning models and digital communication systems. A natural approach is to optimize the corresponding Lagrangian using variants of…
We revisit the classical problem of inverting dimension-reducing linear mappings using the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) criterion. In the literature, solutions are problem-dependent, inconsistent, and use different entropy measures. We propose…
Quantization is a fundamental optimization for many machine-learning use cases, including compressing gradients, model weights and activations, and datasets. The most accurate form of quantization is \emph{adaptive}, where the error is…
Transporting findings from a study population to a target population is central to evidence-based decision-making in real-world settings. Most existing methods require individual-level data from both populations to account for covariate…
We study the convergence of divergence-regularized optimal transport as the regularization parameter vanishes. Sharp rates for general divergences including relative entropy or $L^{p}$ regularization, general transport costs and…
In multivariate extreme value theory (MEVT), the focus is on analysis outside of the observable sampling zone, which implies that the region of interest is associated to high risk levels. This work provides tools to include directional…
Quantile regression is a powerful tool for learning the relationship between a response variable and a multivariate predictor while exploring heterogeneous effects. In this paper, we consider statistical inference for quantile regression…
We develop a collection of methods for adjusting the predictions of quantile regression to ensure coverage. Our methods are model agnostic and can be used to correct for high-dimensional overfitting bias with only minimal assumptions.…
We observe that gradients computed via the reparameterization trick are in direct correspondence with solutions of the transport equation in the formalism of optimal transport. We use this perspective to compute (approximate) pathwise…
Quantile regression provides a framework for modeling statistical quantities of interest other than the conditional mean. The regression methodology is well developed for linear models, but less so for nonparametric models. We consider…
The optimal transport (OT) problem is a classical optimization problem having the form of linear programming. Machine learning applications put forward new computational challenges in its solution. In particular, the OT problem defines a…
This note outlines a mean-field approach to dynamic optimal transport problems based on the recently proposed McKean-Pontryagin maximum principle. Key aspects of the proposed methodology include i) avoidance of sampling over stochastic…
We study the regularity properties of the minimisers of entropic optimal transport providing a natural analogue of the $\varepsilon$-regularity theory of quadratic optimal transport in the entropic setting. More precisely, we show that if…
By adding entropic regularization, multi-marginal optimal transport problems can be transformed into tensor scaling problems, which can be solved numerically using the multi-marginal Sinkhorn algorithm. The main computational bottleneck of…
We investigate an empirical quantile estimation approach to solve chance-constrained nonlinear optimization problems. Our approach is based on the reformulation of the chance constraint as an equivalent quantile constraint to provide…
In this paper we propose and study a novel optimal transport based regularization of linear dynamic inverse problems. The considered inverse problems aim at recovering a measure valued curve and are dynamic in the sense that (i) the…
We study the least-energy way to reshape a probability distribution when motion is constrained to a horizontal bundle, that is, optimal transport and distribution steering in sub-Riemannian geometry, motivated by density control over…
Imbalance in covariate distributions leads to biased estimates of causal effects. Weighting methods attempt to correct this imbalance but rely on specifying models for the treatment assignment mechanism, which is unknown in observational…
