Triangular Flows for Generative Modeling: Statistical Consistency, Smoothness Classes, and Fast Rates

Triangular flows, also known as Knöthe-Rosenblatt measure couplings, comprise an important building block of normalizing flow models for generative modeling and density estimation, including popular autoregressive flows such as real-valued non-volume preserving transformation models (Real NVP). We p…
