Numerical optimal transport

Although optimal transport theory has advanced greatly since the 1980s, its numerical side remains young: Sinkhorn's algorithm dates from 2013, damped Newton methods from the mid-2010s, and the community has yet to settle on standard software libraries. Many algorithms still lack a complete theory of convergence, stability and error estimates. The workshop brings together researchers who design, implement and analyse optimal transport algorithms with practitioners applying them in data science and the natural sciences, to identify and address the field's needs.
