arXiv
pre-print
This distance relies on optimal transport, which provides it with rich geometry awareness, interpretable correspondences and well-understood properties. ...
Current methods to quantify it are often heuristic, make strong assumptions on the label sets across the tasks, and many are architecture-dependent, relying on task-specific optimal parameters (e.g., require ...
Optimal Transport for Domain Adaptation Using label information to guide the optimal transport problem towards class-coherent matches has been explored before, e. g., by enforcing group-norm penalties ...
