We investigate the semi-discrete Optimal Transport (OT) problem, where a continuous source measure $\mu$ is transported to a discrete target measure $\nu$, with particular attention to the OT map approximation. In this setting, Stochastic…
Recent studies have proposed different methods to improve multilingual word representations in contextualized settings including techniques that align between source and target embedding spaces. For contextualized embeddings, alignment…
We develop a computationally tractable method for estimating the optimal map between two distributions over $\mathbb{R}^d$ with rigorous finite-sample guarantees. Leveraging an entropic version of Brenier's theorem, we show that our…
Recently, linear regression models incorporating an optimal transport (OT) loss have been explored for applications such as supervised unmixing of spectra, music transcription, and mass spectrometry. However, these task-specific approaches…
This paper is concerned with the theoretical and computational development of a new class of nonlinear filtering algorithms called the optimal transport particle filters (OTPF). The algorithm is based on a recently introduced variational…
Despite the recent popularity of neural network-based solvers for optimal transport (OT), there is no standard quantitative way to evaluate their performance. In this paper, we address this issue for quadratic-cost transport --…
We rephrase Monge's optimal transportation (OT) problem with quadratic cost--via a Monge-Amp\`ere equation--as an infinite-dimensional optimization problem, which is in fact a convex problem when the target is a log-concave measure with…
Optimal transport (OT) is a versatile framework for comparing probability measures, with many applications to statistics, machine learning, and applied mathematics. However, OT distances suffer from computational and statistical scalability…
Whilst optimal transport (OT) is increasingly being recognized as a powerful and flexible approach for dealing with fairness issues, current OT fairness methods are confined to the use of discrete OT. In this paper, we leverage recent…
Optimal transport (OT) finds a least cost transport plan between two probability distributions using a cost matrix defined on pairs of points. Unlike standard OT, which infers unstructured pointwise mappings, low-rank optimal transport…
Optimal transport (OT) is a widely used technique for distribution alignment, with applications throughout the machine learning, graphics, and vision communities. Without any additional structural assumptions on trans-port, however, OT can…
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…
Optimal transport (OT) compares probability distributions by computing a meaningful alignment between their samples. CO-optimal transport (COOT) takes this comparison further by inferring an alignment between features as well. While this…
We propose a novel approach based on optimal transport (OT) for tackling the problem of highly mixed data in blind hyperspectral unmixing. Our method constrains the distribution of the estimated abundance matrix to resemble a targeted…
The current best practice for computing optimal transport (OT) is via entropy regularization and Sinkhorn iterations. This algorithm runs in quadratic time as it requires the full pairwise cost matrix, which is prohibitively expensive for…
Monotone gradient functions play a central role in solving the Monge formulation of the optimal transport (OT) problem, which arises in modern applications ranging from fluid dynamics to robot swarm control. When the transport cost is the…
Optimal Transport (OT) is a resource allocation problem with applications in biology, data science, economics and statistics, among others. In some of the applications, practitioners have access to samples which approximate the continuous…
Motivated by robust dynamic resource allocation in operations research, we study the \textit{Online Learning to Transport} (OLT) problem where the decision variable is a probability measure, an infinite-dimensional object. We draw…
Optimal transport (OT) is a powerful geometric and probabilistic tool for finding correspondences and measuring similarity between two distributions. Yet, its original formulation relies on the existence of a cost function between the…
Optimal transport (OT) has an important role in transforming data distributions in a manner which engenders fairness. Typically, the OT operators are learnt from the unfair attribute-labelled data, and then used for their repair. Two…
