Sinkhorn Divergences: Bridging the gap between Optimal Transport and MMD

Dec 13, 2019

Speakers

About

Sinkhorn Divergences, based on entropy-regularized OT, were first introduced by Cuturi in 2013 as a solution to the computational burden of OT. However, this family of losses actually interpolates between OT (no regularization) and MMD (infinite regularization). This interpolation property is also true in terms of sample complexity, and thus regularizing OT breaks its curse of dimension. We will illustrate these theoretical claims on a set of learning problems like learning a distribution from samples.
