Information Processing in the Brain as Optimal Entropy Transport: A Theoretical Approach [PDF]
Entropy, 2020 We consider brain activity from an information theoretic perspective. We analyze the information processing in the brain, considering the optimality of Shannon entropy transport using the Monge–Kantorovich framework.

Action functional as an early warning indicator in the space of probability measures via Schrödinger bridge. [PDF]
Quant BiolAbstract Critical transitions and tipping phenomena between two meta‐stable states in stochastic dynamical systems are a scientific issue. In this work, we expand the methodology of identifying the most probable transition pathway between two meta‐stable states with Onsager–Machlup action functional, to investigate the evolutionary transition dynamics ...

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence TechnologyMonge–Ampère equations (MAEs) are fully nonlinear second‐order partial differential equations (PDEs), which are closely related to various fields including optimal transport (OT) theory, geometrical optics and affine geometry. Despite their significance,

Computing Three-Dimensional Freeform Reflectors with a Scattering Surface [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2023 We present a novel approach to computing reflectors with a scattering surface in illumination optics. A scattering model governed by a Fredholm integral equation is derived.

Design of optical surfaces conform the hyperbolic Monge-Ampère equation [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2022 We present a method for designing freeform optical surfaces for illumination optics. By the laws of reflection, refraction and conservation of energy, a fully nonlinear PDE, the Monge-Ampere equation, is derived for the optical surface.

Freeform design of a two-reflector system to collimate and shape a point source distribution [PDF]
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021 We present a method to design a freeform two-reflector system to collimate and shape a beam from a point source. An important generalization compared to previous research is that the output beam can be in an arbitrary direction.

An adaptive least-squares algorithm for the elliptic Monge–Ampère equation
Comptes Rendus. Mécanique, 2023 We address the numerical solution of the Dirichlet problem for the two-dimensional elliptic Monge–Ampère equation using a least-squares/relaxation approach.
