Representation Alignment from a Few Paired Data via Distilled Optimal Transport

arXiv:2610.12781v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Aligning two independently pretrained unimodal encoders typically demands millions of paired examples. In this paper, we study the regime where only $N \sim 100$--$500$ pairs are available, while unpaired data on either side is abundant. Our method expresses every representation by its similarities to the $N$ paired anchors, which places both modalities in a common coordinate system; matches the two point clouds with a single entropic optimal transport problem solved over the entire pool, whose marginal constraints counteract the hubness that def
