New research details convergence rates for sliced optimal transport

A new paper on arXiv details convergence rates for distribution matching using sliced optimal transport. The research establishes quantitative non-asymptotic rates by deriving Lojasiewicz-type inequalities for the Sliced-Wasserstein objective, particularly for Gaussian distributions. The study also includes numerical experiments to illustrate the theoretical predictions regarding dimension, step-size, and the benefits of orthonormal-basis sampling. AI

IMPACT This research contributes to the theoretical understanding of distribution matching techniques, potentially improving the efficiency of certain machine learning algorithms.

    Convergence Rates for Distribution Matching with Sliced Optimal Transport

    arXiv:2602.10691v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the slice-matching scheme, an efficient iterative method for distribution matching based on sliced optimal transport. We investigate convergence to the target distribution and derive quantitative non-asymptotic rates. T…
