Improving GANs Using Optimal Transport
We present Optimal Transport GAN (OT-GAN), a variant of generative adversarial nets minimizing a new metric measuring the distance between the generator distribution and the data distribution. This metric, which we call mini-batch energy distance, combines optimal transport in primal form with an energy distance defined in an adversarially learned feature space, resulting in a highly discriminative distance function with unbiased mini-batch gradients. Experimentally we show OT-GAN to be highly stable when trained with large mini-batches, and we present state-of-the-art results on several popular benchmark problems for image generation.

Connecting GANs, MFGs, and OT
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have enjoyed tremendous success in image generation and processing, and have recently attracted growing interests in financial modelings. This paper analyzes GANs from the perspecti…
Image Generationk-GANs: Ensemble of Generative Models with Semi-Discrete Optimal Transport
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 th…
Mode Collapse and Regularity of Optimal Transportation Maps
This work builds the connection between the regularity theory of optimal transportation map, Monge-Amp\`{e}re equation and GANs, which gives a theoretic understanding of the major drawbacks of GANs: convergence difficult…

In this paper, we present Super-OT, a novel approach to computational lineage tracing that combines a supervised learning framework with optimal transport based on Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). Unlike previous …
Optimal Transport Relaxations with Application to Wasserstein GANs
We propose a family of relaxations of the optimal transport problem which regularize the problem by introducing an additional minimization step over a small region around one of the underlying transporting measures. The …
