Outline of Research at the Start |
We design novel measures for graphs with the following advantages: 1) taking into account node features and global structures of graphs. 2) deriving valid kernels that can be used for kernel-based frameworks. 3) reducing the complexity of computing the pairwise distance or kernel matrices.

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
The research aims to develop optimal transport-based learning models for structured data, along with their related extensions and applications.
This year, our main focus has been on learning to generate structured data. Generating structured data, such as graphs, poses a significant challenge due to the constraints imposed on the generated samples. To address it, we formulated the problem of generating structured data as a distribution optimization problem on constrained domains. Then we developed a general framework based on the optimal transport theory to tackle this issue. We conducted an analysis of theoretical properties and convergence of the proposed, as well as experiments on synthetic and real world data sets to demonstrate its effectiveness in generating constrained samples.
