Convergence of Continuous Normalizing Flows for Learning Probability Distributions

Yuan Gao, Jian Huang, Yuling Jiao +1

Continuous normalizing flows (CNFs) are a generative method for learning probability distributions, which is based on ordinary differential equations. This method has shown remarka…

Lipschitz Transport Maps via the Follmer Flow

Yin Dai, Yuan Gao, Jian Huang +3

Inspired by the construction of the F{ö}llmer process, we construct a unit-time flow on the Euclidean space, termed the F{ö}llmer flow, whose flow map at time 1 pushes forward a st…

Relative Entropy Gradient Sampler for Unnormalized Distributions

Xingdong Feng, Yuan Gao, Jian Huang +2

We propose a relative entropy gradient sampler (REGS) for sampling from unnormalized distributions. REGS is a particle method that seeks a sequence of simple nonlinear transforms i…
