AbstractUnderstanding how to compare and interpolate complex data, such as images, shapes, and network structures, is a fundamental challenge across science and engineering, especially in the context of artificial intelligence. This project develops new mathematical and computational tools that extend the theory of optimal transport, a well-established framework for measuring distances between probability distributions. The proposed methods are tailored to settings which more closely reflect specialized
