Mean convergence rates for Gaussian-smoothed Wasserstein distances and classical Wasserstein distances

open access: yes
We establish upper bounds for the expected Gaussian-smoothed $p$-Wasserstein distance between a probability measure $μ$ and the corresponding empirical measure $μ_N$, whenever $μ$ has finite $q$-th moments for any $q>p$. This generalizes recent results that were valid only for $q>2p+2d$. We provide two distinct proofs of such a result.

On the Mean‐Field Limit of Consensus‐Based Methods

open access: yesMathematical Methods in the Applied Sciences, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 4214-4240, 30 March 2026.
ABSTRACT Consensus‐based optimization (CBO) employs a swarm of particles evolving as a system of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). Recently, it has been adapted to yield a derivative free sampling method referred to as consensus‐based sampling (CBS). In this paper, we investigate the “mean‐field limit” of a class of consensus methods, including

Skorohod Representation Theorem Via Disintegrations [PDF]

open access: yes
Let (µn : n >= 0) be Borel probabilities on a metric space S such that µn -> µ0 weakly. Say that Skorohod representation holds if, on some probability space, there are S-valued random variables Xn satisfying Xn - µn for all n and Xn -> X0 in probability.

Hybrid Wasserstein Distance: An Approximation for Optimal Transport Distances

open access: yesComputation
Projection-based variants of optimal transport, such as the Sliced Wasserstein (SW) and its extensions, have become popular alternatives to classical Wasserstein distances due to their scalability and analytical tractability.

The Wasserstein Distance for Ricci Shrinkers

open access: yesInternational Mathematics Research Notices
Abstract Let $(M^{n},g,f)$ be a Ricci shrinker such that $\text{Ric}_{f}=\frac{1}{2}g$ and the measure induced by the weighted volume element $(4\pi )^{-\frac{n}{2}}e^{-f}dv_{g}$ is a probability measure. Given a point $p\in M$, we consider two probability measures defined in the tangent space $T_{p}M$, namely the Gaussian measure ...

Wasserstein–Markov Random Forest (WMRF): A Machine Learning-Based Model for Accurate Protein Subcellular Localization

open access: yesIEEE Access
Motivation: Accurate prediction of protein subcellular localization (PSL) from sequence is central to cell biology and proteome-scale annotation. However, current approaches face a persistent trade-off: deep learning models often deliver strong accuracy ...

Wasserstein Distances, Neuronal Entanglement, and Sparsity

open access: yes
Disentangling polysemantic neurons is at the core of many current approaches to interpretability of large language models. Here we attempt to study how disentanglement can be used to understand performance, particularly under weight sparsity, a leading post-training optimization technique. We suggest a novel measure for estimating neuronal entanglement:

Accurate Identification Method of Small-Size Polymetallic Nodules Based on Seafloor Hyperspectral Data

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Polymetallic nodules are spherical or ellipsoidal mineral aggregates formed naturally in deep-sea environments. They contain a variety of metallic elements and are important solid mineral resources on the seabed.
