Set Representation Learning with Generalized Sliced-Wasserstein Embeddings
An increasing number of machine learning tasks deal with learning representations from set-structured data. Solutions to these problems involve the composition of permutation-equivariant modules (e.g., self-attention, or individual processing via feed-forward neural networks) and permutation-invariant modules (e.g., global average pooling, or pooling by multi-head attention). In this paper, we propose a geometrically-interpretable framework for learning representations from set-structured data, which is rooted in the optimal mass transportation problem. In particular, we treat elements of a set as samples from a probability measure and propose an exact Euclidean embedding for Generalized Sliced Wasserstein (GSW) distances to learn from set-structured data effectively. We evaluate our proposed framework on multiple supervised and unsupervised set learning tasks and demonstrate its superiority over state-of-the-art set representation learning approaches.

Fast Approximation of the Generalized Sliced-Wasserstein Distance
Generalized sliced Wasserstein distance is a variant of sliced Wasserstein distance that exploits the power of non-linear projection through a given defining function to better capture the complex structures of the proba…

Multi-marginal optimal transport enables one to compare multiple probability measures, which increasingly finds application in multi-task learning problems. One practical limitation of multi-marginal transport is computa…
