Two-Sample Testing via Path-based Inference

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.05684v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern deep generative models are primarily studied for their ability to generate realistic samples, yet the generative dynamics they learn can also serve as objects of statistical inference. We develop this idea for two-sample testing, the problem of deciding whether the same distribution generated two finite datasets. Using stochastic interpolants, we connect both distributions to a shared Gaussian bottleneck, so that each half of the resulting
