Beyond Empirical Support: Structured Outlier Generation via Sinkhorn Optimal Transport

Outliers are essential for evaluating and improving the robustness of machine learning systems, especially when future distributions may differ significantly from historical training data. In high-stakes applications, robustness often depends on rare cases that finite datasets fail to capture, making simple resampling or perturbation insufficient for stress scenario generation. Existing outlier synthesis methods typically rely on sparse neighborhoods, low support latent regions, or classifier boundary crossings, which can be heuristic, unstable, and tied to specific modalities or architectures. We therefore propose Sinkhorn Boundary Outlier Generation (SBOG), a structured framework for la...
