Conditional Unbalanced Optimal Transport Maps: An Outlier-Robust Framework for Conditional Generative Modeling

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2603.06972v1 Announce Type: new Conditional Optimal Transport (COT) problem aims to find a transport map between conditional source and target distributions while minimizing the transport cost. Recently, these transport maps have been utilized in conditional generative modeling tasks to establish efficient mappings between the distributions. However, classical COT inherits a fundamental limitation of optimal transport, i.e., sensitivity to outliers, which arises from the hard distribution matching constraints.
