Wasserstein Residuals: Learning Gradient Flows from Population Dynamics

Markus Heinonen, Yair Shenfeld, Ricardo Baptista +4

Reconstructing population dynamics is a central problem in the physical and data sciences. Often, the dynamics are modeled as a Wasserstein gradient flow (WGF): a curve of distribu…

Conditional simulation via entropic optimal transport: Toward non-parametric estimation of conditional Brenier maps

Ricardo Baptista, Aram-Alexandre Pooladian, Michael Brennan +2

Conditional simulation is a fundamental task in statistical modeling: Generate samples from the conditionals given finitely many data points from a joint distribution. One promisin…

Efficient Neural Network Approaches for Conditional Optimal Transport with Applications in Bayesian Inference

Zheyu Oliver Wang, Ricardo Baptista, Youssef Marzouk +2

We present two neural network approaches that approximate the solutions of static and dynamic $\unicode{x1D450}\unicode{x1D45C}\unicode{x1D45B}\unicode{x1D451}\unicode{x1D456}\unic…

A generative flow for conditional sampling via optimal transport

Jason Alfonso, Ricardo Baptista, Anupam Bhakta +7

Sampling conditional distributions is a fundamental task for Bayesian inference and density estimation. Generative models, such as normalizing flows and generative adversarial netw…

Learning non-Gaussian graphical models via Hessian scores and triangular transport

Ricardo Baptista, Youssef Marzouk, Rebecca E. Morrison +1

Undirected probabilistic graphical models represent the conditional dependencies, or Markov properties, of a collection of random variables. Knowing the sparsity of such a graphica…

Conditional Sampling with Monotone GANs: from Generative Models to Likelihood-Free Inference

Ricardo Baptista, Bamdad Hosseini, Nikola B. Kovachki +1

We present a novel framework for conditional sampling of probability measures, using block triangular transport maps. We develop the theoretical foundations of block triangular tra…

Bayesian Optimization of Combinatorial Structures

Ricardo Baptista, Matthias Poloczek

The optimization of expensive-to-evaluate black-box functions over combinatorial structures is an ubiquitous task in machine learning, engineering and the natural sciences. The com…
