Sliced-Wasserstein Estimation with Spherical Harmonics as Control Variates

ICML 2024poster

The Sliced-Wasserstein (SW) distance between probability measures is defined as the average of the Wasserstein distances resulting for the associated one-dimensional projections. As a consequence, the SW distance can be written as an integral with respect to the uniform measure on the sphere and the…

A Quadrature Rule combining Control Variates and Adaptive Importance Sampling

NeurIPS 2022accept

Driven by several successful applications such as in stochastic gradient descent or in Bayesian computation, control variates have become a major tool for Monte Carlo integration. However, standard methods do not allow the distribution of the particles to evolve during the algorithm, as is the case…
