We present an optimal mass transport framework on the space of Gaussian mixture models, which are widely used in statistical inference. Our method leads to a natural way to compare, interpolate and average Gaussian mixture models.…

Estimating the log-likelihood gradient with respect to the parameters of a Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) typically requires sampling using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) techniques. To save computation time, the Markov chains are only…

This paper is devoted to the study of the Monge-Kantorovich theory of optimal mass transport and its applications, in the special case of one-dimensional and circular distributions. More precisely, we study the Monge-Kantorovich distances…

Recently, the Gromov-Wasserstein Optimal Transport (GWOT) problem has attracted the special attention of the ML community. In this problem, given two distributions supported on two (possibly different) spaces, one has to find the most…

We study the estimation of optimal transport (OT) maps between an arbitrary source probability measure and a log-concave target probability measure. Our contributions are twofold. First, we propose a new evolution equation in the set of…

This paper explores the problem of generative modeling, aiming to simulate diverse examples from an unknown distribution based on observed examples. While recent studies have focused on quantifying the statistical precision of popular…

This paper introduces the Gene Mover's Distance, a measure of similarity between a pair of cells based on their gene expression profiles obtained via single-cell RNA sequencing. The underlying idea of the proposed distance is to interpret…

We propose a new approach to train the Generative Adversarial Nets (GANs) with a mixture of generators to overcome the mode collapsing problem. The main intuition is to employ multiple generators, instead of using a single one as in the…

Biclustering algorithms partition data and covariates simultaneously, providing new insights in several domains, such as analyzing gene expression to discover new biological functions. This paper develops a new model-free biclustering…

Gromov-Wasserstein distance has found many applications in machine learning due to its ability to compare measures across metric spaces and its invariance to isometric transformations. However, in certain applications, this invariance…

Traditional generative adversarial networks (GAN) and many of its variants are trained by minimizing the KL or JS-divergence loss that measures how close the generated data distribution is from the true data distribution. A recent advance…

We propose a novel training procedure for improving the performance of generative adversarial networks (GANs), especially to bidirectional GANs. First, we enforce that the empirical distribution of the inverse inference network matches the…

Many methods for machine learning rely on approximate inference from intractable probability distributions. Variational inference approximates such distributions by tractable models that can be subsequently used for approximate inference.…

The bipartite matching problem is widely applied in the field of transportation; e.g., to find optimal matches between supply and demand over time and space. Recent efforts have been made on developing analytical formulas to estimate the…

Despite the remarkable empirical success of score-based diffusion models, their statistical guarantees remain underdeveloped. Existing analyses often provide pessimistic convergence rates that do not reflect the intrinsic low-dimensional…

We study the statistical distribution of the closest encounter between generic smooth observations computed along different trajectories of a rapidly mixing dynamical system. At the limit of large trajectories, we obtain a distribution of…

We introduce two kernels that extend the mean map, which embeds probability measures in Hilbert spaces. The generative mean map kernel (GMMK) is a smooth similarity measure between probabilistic models. The latent mean map kernel (LMMK)…

Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are the state of the art in generative modeling. Unfortunately, most GAN methods are susceptible to mode collapse, meaning that they tend to capture only a subset of the modes of the true distribution.…

Implicit Generative Models (IGMs) such as GANs have emerged as effective data-driven models for generating samples, particularly images. In this paper, we formulate the problem of learning an IGM as minimizing the expected distance between…

This contribution presents substantial computational advancements to compare measures even with varying masses. Specifically, we utilize the nonequispaced fast Fourier transform to accelerate the radial kernel convolution in unbalanced…
