We study the Schrödinger bridge problem when the endpoint distributions are available only through samples. Classical computational approaches estimate Schrödinger potentials via Sinkhorn iterations on empirical measures and then construct a time-inhomogeneous drift by differentiating a kernel-smoothed dual solution. In contrast, we propose a learning-theoretic route: we rewrite the Schrödinger system in terms of a single positive transformed potential that satisfies a nonlinear fixed-point equation and estimate this potential by empirical risk minimization over a function class. We establish uniform concentration of the empirical risk around its population counterpart under sub-Gaussian assumptions on the reference kernel and terminal density. We plug the learned potential into a stochastic control representation of the bridge to generate samples. We illustrate performance of the suggested approach with numerical experiments.
