Paper "Scalable Supervised Optimal Transport of Gaussian Mixture Models" accepted at NeurIPS 2026
Our paper Scalable Supervised Optimal Transport of Gaussian Mixture Models was accepted for publication at NeurIPS 2026.
Computational Network Science
The Chair for Computational Network Science is part of the Faculty of Computer Science and the Department of Biology at RWTH Aachen University.
The research interests of our group are broad, but have one common denominator: the use of graphs and networks to analyse a variety of systems and data. A central methodological issue underlying our research is how one can study and integrate the multiple levels of organization which are commonly found in complex systems and high-dimensional data. To this end, we combine bottom-up dynamical models, and top-down data-driven approaches, and use a blend of tools from control theory, dynamical systems, stochastic processes, topology, machine learning and statistics. See the Research page for more details.
