## Abstract (arXiv)

Learning low-dimensional representations from multi-view relational data is challenging when underlying geometries differ across views. We propose Bary-GWMDS, a Gromov-Wasserstein-based method that operates directly on distance matrices to learn a consensus embedding preserving shared relational structure. By leveraging intrinsic distances, the approach naturally handles nonlinear distortions across views. We also introduce Mean-GWMDS-C, a clustering-oriented formulation that averages distance matrices and learns reduced-support representations via a consensus Gromov-Wasserstein transport. Experiments on synthetic and real-world datasets show that the proposed framework yields stable and geometrically meaningful embeddings.
