Non-convex entropic mean-field optimization via Best Response flow

no code implementations28 May 2025 Razvan-Andrei Lascu, Mateusz B. Majka

We study the problem of minimizing non-convex functionals on the space of probability measures, regularized by the relative entropy (KL divergence) with respect to a fixed reference measure, as well as the corresponding problem of solving entropy-regularized non-convex-non-concave min-max problems.

Linear convergence of proximal descent schemes on the Wasserstein space

no code implementations22 Nov 2024 Razvan-Andrei Lascu, Mateusz B. Majka, David Šiška, Łukasz Szpruch

Since the relative entropy is not Wasserstein differentiable, we prove that along the scheme the iterates belong to a certain class of Sobolev regularity, and hence the relative entropy $\operatorname{KL}(\cdot|\pi)$ has a unique Wasserstein sub-gradient, and that the relative Fisher information is indeed finite.

A Fisher-Rao gradient flow for entropic mean-field min-max games

no code implementations24 May 2024 Razvan-Andrei Lascu, Mateusz B. Majka, Łukasz Szpruch

Gradient flows play a substantial role in addressing many machine learning problems.

Mirror Descent-Ascent for mean-field min-max problems

no code implementations12 Feb 2024 Razvan-Andrei Lascu, Mateusz B. Majka, Łukasz Szpruch

We study two variants of the mirror descent-ascent algorithm for solving min-max problems on the space of measures: simultaneous and sequential.
