Proposes a normalization technique for manifold valued data.
In this paper, we consider the variational regularization of manifold-valued data in the inverse problems setting. In particular, we consider TV and TGV regularization for manifold-valued data with indirect measurement operators. We provide results on the well-posedness and present algorithms for a numerical realizatio…

Proposes CC-NMDF for analyzing manifold-valued data.
We consider the topic of multivariate regression on manifold-valued output, that is, for a multivariate observation, its output response lies on a manifold. Moreover, we propose a new regression model to deal with the presence of grossly corrupted manifold-valued responses, a bottleneck issue commonly encountered in pr…
The paper analyzes the amplitude of functions on the sphere, improving FDA methods.
We discuss multiscale representations of discrete manifold-valued data. As it turns out that we cannot expect general manifold-analogues of biorthogonal wavelets to possess perfect reconstruction, we focus our attention on those constructions which are based on upscaling operators which are either interpolating or midp…
Extends graph theory to hypergraphs with manifold-valued nodes.
In this paper, we consider the sparse regularization of manifold-valued data with respect to an interpolatory wavelet/multiscale transform. We propose and study variational models for this task and provide results on their well-posedness. We present algorithms for a numerical realization of these models in the manifold…
We approximate derivatives of functions on manifolds by embedding them and applying vector-valued operators.
Generative modeling over natural images is one of the most fundamental machine learning problems. However, few modern generative models, including Wasserstein Generative Adversarial Nets (WGANs), are studied on manifold-valued images that are frequently encountered in real-world applications. To fill the gap, this pape…

A new method calculates intrinsic effective sample size for manifold-valued data.
Manifold-valued data naturally arises in medical imaging. In cognitive neuroscience, for instance, brain connectomes base the analysis of coactivation patterns between different brain regions on the analysis of the correlations of their functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) time series - an object thus constrain…
The present contribution suggests the use of a multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithm as a visualization tool for manifold-valued elements. A visualization tool of this kind is useful in signal processing and machine learning whenever learning/adaptation algorithms insist on high-dimensional parameter manifolds.
This paper addresses the morphing of manifold-valued images based on the time discrete geodesic paths model of Berkels, Effland and Rumpf 2015. Although for our manifold-valued setting such an interpretation of the energy functional is not available so far, the model is interesting on its own. We prove the existence of…
Conventional prior for Variational Auto-Encoder (VAE) is a Gaussian distribution. Recent works demonstrated that choice of prior distribution affects learning capacity of VAE models. We propose a general technique (embedding-reparameterization procedure, or ER) for introducing arbitrary manifold-valued variables in VAE…
Hierarchical geodesic model for analyzing shapes on manifolds.
We discuss the nature of structure-preserving maps of varies function algebras. In particular, we identify isomorphisms between special Colombeau algebras on manifolds with invertible manifold-valued generalized functions in the case of smooth parametrization. As a consequence, and to underline the consistency and vali…

Unified framework for Riemannian deep learning across manifold-valued representations.
A non-Euclidean generalization of conditional expectation is introduced and characterized as the minimizer of expected intrinsic squared-distance from a manifold-valued target. The computational tractable formulation expresses the non-convex optimization problem as transformations of Euclidean conditional expectation. …
New method classifies manifold-valued data using Riemannian geometry.
Develops methods to find most probable paths on complex manifolds.
The manifold hypothesis states that many kinds of high-dimensional data are concentrated near a low-dimensional manifold. If the topology of this data manifold is non-trivial, a continuous encoder network cannot embed it in a one-to-one manner without creating holes of low density in the latent space. This is at odds w…
A new method learns manifold-valued latents without an encoder.
An increasing array of biomedical and computer vision applications requires the predictive modeling of complex data, for example images and shapes. The main challenge when predicting such objects lies in the fact that they do not comply to the assumptions of Euclidean geometry. Rather, they occupy non-linear spaces, a.…

Study Lipschitz regularity for manifold-constrained ROF model on curved surfaces.
Structured prediction provides a general framework to deal with supervised problems where the outputs have semantically rich structure. While classical approaches consider finite, albeit potentially huge, output spaces, in this paper we discuss how structured prediction can be extended to a continuous scenario. Specifi…
The analysis of manifold-valued data requires efficient tools from Riemannian geometry to cope with the computational complexity at stake. This complexity arises from the always-increasing dimension of the data, and the absence of closed-form expressions to basic operations such as the Riemannian logarithm. In this pap…
The aim of this paper is to find an optimal matching between manifold-valued curves, and thereby adequately compare their shapes, seen as equivalent classes with respect to the action of reparameterization. Using a canonical decomposition of a path in a principal bundle, we introduce a simple algorithm that finds an op…

This paper extends Nevanlinna's unicity theorems to complete Kahler manifolds.
Kernel methods have had great success in Statistics and Machine Learning. Despite their growing popularity, however, less effort has been drawn towards developing kernel based classification methods on Riemannian manifolds due to difficulty in dealing with non-Euclidean geometry. In this paper, motivated by the extrins…

Characterizing the appearance of real-world surfaces is a fundamental problem in multidimensional reflectometry, computer vision and computer graphics. For many applications, appearance is sufficiently well characterized by the bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF). We treat BRDF measurements as sample…

Score matching provides an effective approach to learning flexible unnormalized models, but its scalability is limited by the need to evaluate a second-order derivative. In this paper, we present a scalable approximation to a general family of learning objectives including score matching, by observing a new connection …

We prove that the geodesic equations of all Sobolev metrics of fractional order one and higher on spaces of diffeomorphisms and, more generally, immersions are locally well posed. This result builds on the recently established real analytic dependence of fractional Laplacians on the underlying Riemannian metric. It ext…
