Optimization Methods for W2 Gradient Flows
We covered and implemented the algorithms of the paper 'Optimal Transport with Proximal Splitting' on complex scenarios.
We analyzed and presented the paper ‘Optimal Transport with Proximal Splitting’ (Papadakis et al., 2014) for a graduate gradient flows course at the University of Washington, benchmarking the proposed algorithms on novel experiments. A detailed report with the appropriate background can be found here, and the presentation slides can be found here.
