Motivated by the challenge of sampling Gibbs measures with nonconvex potentials, we study a continuum birth-death dynamics.

We introduce new estimators for the normal vector to the boundary, distance of a point to the boundary, and a test for whether a point lies within a boundary strip.

In this work we build a unifying framework to interpolate between density-driven and geometry-based algorithms for data clustering, and specifically, to connect the mean shift algorithm with spectral clustering at discrete and continuum levels.

The proofs of our well-posedness results use the random walk interpretation of Laplacian learning and PDE arguments, while the proofs of the ill-posedness results use $\Gamma$-convergence tools from the calculus of variations.

Scalings in which the graph Laplacian approaches a differential operator in the large graph limit are used to develop understanding of a number of algorithms for semi-supervised learning; in particular the extension, to this graph setting, of the probit algorithm, level set and kriging methods, are studied.

Transport based distances, such as the Wasserstein distance and earth mover's distance, have been shown to be an effective tool in signal and image analysis.

We also show that the discrete clusters obtained via spectral clustering converge towards a continuum partition of the ground truth measure.
