FrnkNlsn shares three newly released Japanese math texts: Kyoritsu Shuppan's Statistical Inference Using Generative Models (Egumi Masasuke, Dec 2026, ¥2,860), which systematically teaches flow matching as a tool for learning high-dimensional and conditional distributions rather than mere data generation, plus Optimal Transport Theory (Asakura Publishing) and Information Geometry: Asymptotic Theory of Estimation and Prediction.
