Entropic optimal transport (EOT) presents an effective and computationally viable alternative to unregularized optimal transport (OT), offering diverse applications for large-scale data analysis. In this work, we derive novel statistical…
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…
The empirical optimal transport (OT) cost between two probability measures from random data is a fundamental quantity in transport based data analysis. In this work, we derive novel guarantees for its convergence rate when the involved…
The Gromov-Wasserstein (GW) problem provides a powerful framework for aligning heterogeneous datasets by matching their internal structures in a way that minimizes distortion. However, GW alignment is sensitive to data contamination by…
A fundamental challenge in data science is to match disparate point sets with each other. While optimal transport efficiently minimizes point displacements under a bijectivity constraint, it is inherently sensitive to rotations. Conversely,…
Optimal Transport is a theory that allows to define geometrical notions of distance between probability distributions and to find correspondences, relationships, between sets of points. Many machine learning applications are derived from…
Regularized optimal transport (OT) is now increasingly used as a loss or as a matching layer in neural networks. Entropy-regularized OT can be computed using the Sinkhorn algorithm but it leads to fully-dense transportation plans, meaning…
With the discovery of Wasserstein GANs, Optimal Transport (OT) has become a powerful tool for large-scale generative modeling tasks. In these tasks, OT cost is typically used as the loss for training GANs. In contrast to this approach, we…
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…

The goal of optimal transport (OT) is to find optimal assignments or matchings between data sets which minimize the total cost for a given cost function. However, sometimes the cost function is unknown but we have access to (parts of) the…
Optimal transport (OT) provides effective tools for comparing and mapping probability measures. We propose to leverage the flexibility of neural networks to learn an approximate optimal transport map. More precisely, we present a new and…
Comparing structured data from possibly different metric-measure spaces is a fundamental task in machine learning, with applications in, e.g., graph classification. The Gromov-Wasserstein (GW) discrepancy formulates a coupling between the…
Defining meaningful distances between samples in a dataset is a fundamental problem in machine learning. Optimal Transport (OT) lifts a distance between features (the "ground metric") to a geometrically meaningful distance between samples.…
To improve the performance of classical generative adversarial network (GAN), Wasserstein generative adversarial networks (W-GAN) was developed as a Kantorovich dual formulation of the optimal transport (OT) problem using Wasserstein-1…
Optimal transportation provides a means of lifting distances between points on a geometric domain to distances between signals over the domain, expressed as probability distributions. On a graph, transportation problems can be used to…
The Gromov-Wasserstein (GW) distance is an effective measure of alignment between distributions supported on distinct ambient spaces. Calculating essentially the mutual departure from isometry, it has found vast usage in domain translation…
Optimal transport (OT) distances between probability distributions are parameterized by the ground metric they use between observations. Their relevance for real-life applications strongly hinges on whether that ground metric parameter is…
Gromov--Wasserstein optimal transport (GWOT) aligns metric measure spaces by matching their within-domain relational structures, but large-scale GWOT remains challenging because its objective is nonconvex and projection onto the transport…
We investigate finding a map $g$ within a function class $G$ that minimises an Optimal Transport (OT) cost between a target measure $\nu$ and the image by $g$ of a source measure $\mu$. This is relevant when an OT map from $\mu$ to $\nu$…
