Divergence Kernel
A class of kernel methods for measuring the difference between two probability distributions, constructing a differentiable divergence measure by embedding distributions into a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) and avoiding explicit density estimation.
Timeline (last 90 days)
A divergence-kernel-based method can jointly optimize the drift field, diffusion field, and initial Gaussian distribution of a neural SDE, and is trained directly using a loss function that depends on the terminal density.
The divergence kernel embeds distributions into a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) and constructs a divergence metric using kernel mean embeddings, thereby avoiding explicit density estimation.
This paper bypasses explicit path simulation through the divergence kernel loss, making joint training feasible.
Possible future research directions include applying the method to tasks such as image generation and time series modeling, as well as exploring more efficient divergence kernel function designs and training strategies.
