Convex Distance Operator Transport

Convex Distance Operator Transport: A Convex and Geometry-Preserving Formulation

arXiv:2606.02047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Convex Distance Operator Transport (CDOT), the first convex optimal transport framework that aligns distributions across heterogeneous domains by jointly preserving feature correspondence and intrinsic geometric structure. Specifically, CDOT employs an operator-based regularization that aligns aggregated distance structures by introducing distance and conditional expectation operators. Consequently, the proposed regularization...
