Deep Invertible Approximation of Topologically Rich Maps between Manifolds

no code implementations2 Oct 2022 Michael Puthawala, Matti Lassas, Ivan Dokmanic, Pekka Pankka, Maarten de Hoop

By exploiting the topological parallels between locally bilipschitz maps, covering spaces, and local homeomorphisms, and by using universal approximation arguments from machine learning, we find that a novel network of the form $\mathcal{T} \circ p \circ \mathcal{E}$, where $\mathcal{E}$ is an injective network, $p$ a fixed coordinate projection, and $\mathcal{T}$ a bijective network, is a universal approximator of local diffeomorphisms between compact smooth submanifolds embedded in $\mathbb{R}^n$.

Universal Joint Approximation of Manifolds and Densities by Simple Injective Flows

no code implementations8 Oct 2021 Michael Puthawala, Matti Lassas, Ivan Dokmanić, Maarten de Hoop

We show that in general, injective flows between $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\mathbb{R}^m$ universally approximate measures supported on images of extendable embeddings, which are a subset of standard embeddings: when the embedding dimension m is small, topological obstructions may preclude certain manifolds as admissible targets.

Globally Injective ReLU Networks

Injectivity plays an important role in generative models where it enables inference; in inverse problems and compressed sensing with generative priors it is a precursor to well posedness.

Unnormalized Optimal Transport

We propose an extension of the computational fluid mechanics approach to the Monge-Kantorovich mass transfer problem, which was developed by Benamou-Brenier.
