Transport f divergences
We define a class of divergences to measure differences between probability density functions in one-dimensional sample space. The construction is based on the convex function with the Jacobi operator of mapping function that pushforwards one density to the other. We call these information measures transport f-divergences. We present several properties of transport $f$-divergences, including invariances, convexities, variational formulations, and Taylor expansions in terms of mapping functions. Examples of transport f-divergences in generative models are provided.

Transport information Bregman divergences
We study Bregman divergences in probability density space embedded with the $L^2$-Wasserstein metric. Several properties and dualities of transport Bregman divergences are provided. In particular, we derive the transport…
Optimal Transport Divergences induced by Scoring Functions
We employ scoring functions, used in statistics for eliciting risk functionals, as cost functions in the Monge-Kantorovich (MK) optimal transport problem. This gives raise to a rich variety of novel asymmetric MK diverge…
Proximal optimal transport divergences
We introduce proximal optimal transport divergence, a novel discrepancy measure that interpolates between information divergences and optimal transport distances via an infimal convolution formulation. This divergence pr…
Sequential transport maps using SoS density estimation and $α$-divergences
Transport-based density estimation methods are receiving growing interest because of their ability to efficiently generate samples from the approximated density. We further invertigate the sequential transport maps frame…

Optimal transport induces the Earth Mover's (Wasserstein) distance between probability distributions, a geometric divergence that is relevant to a wide range of problems. Over the last decade, two relaxations of optimal …
