[HTML][HTML] A fixed-point approach to barycenters in Wasserstein space

PC Álvarez-Esteban, E Del Barrio… - Journal of Mathematical …, 2016 - Elsevier
Let P 2, ac be the set of Borel probabilities on R d with finite second moment and absolutely
continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. We consider the problem of finding the …

Existence and consistency of Wasserstein barycenters

T Le Gouic, JM Loubes - Probability Theory and Related Fields, 2017 - Springer
Based on the Fréchet mean, we define a notion of barycenter corresponding to a usual
notion of statistical mean. We prove the existence of Wasserstein barycenters of random …

Statistical inference for Bures–Wasserstein barycenters

A Kroshnin, V Spokoiny… - The Annals of Applied …, 2021 - projecteuclid.org
In this work we introduce the concept of Bures–Wasserstein barycenter Q∗, that is
essentially a Fréchet mean of some distribution P supported on a subspace of positive semi …

Penalization of barycenters in the Wasserstein space

J Bigot, E Cazelles, N Papadakis - SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis, 2019 - SIAM
In this paper, a regularization of Wasserstein barycenters for random measures supported
on R^d is introduced via convex penalization. The existence and uniqueness of such …

A novel notion of barycenter for probability distributions based on optimal weak mass transport

E Cazelles, F Tobar, J Fontbona - Advances in Neural …, 2021 - proceedings.neurips.cc
We introduce weak barycenters of a family of probability distributions, based on the recently
developed notion of optimal weak transport of mass by Gozlan et al.(2017) and Backhoff …

Gaussian processes with multidimensional distribution inputs via optimal transport and Hilbertian embedding

F Bachoc, A Suvorikova, D Ginsbourger, JM Loubes… - 2020 - projecteuclid.org
In this work, we propose a way to construct Gaussian processes indexed by
multidimensional distributions. More precisely, we tackle the problem of defining positive …

Construction of non-asymptotic confidence sets in 2-Wasserstein space

J Ebert, V Spokoiny, A Suvorikova - arXiv preprint arXiv:1703.03658, 2017 - arxiv.org
In this paper, we consider a probabilistic setting where the probability measures are
considered to be random objects. We propose a procedure of construction non-asymptotic …

Distribution regression model with a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space approach

B Thi Thien Trang, JM Loubes, L Risser… - … in Statistics-Theory …, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
In this paper, we introduce a new distribution regression model for probability distributions.
This model is based on a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS) regression framework …

This model is based on a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS) regression framework …

Machine learning and optimal transport: some statistical and algorithmic tools

E Cazelles - ESAIM: Proceedings and Surveys, 2023 - esaim-proc.org
In this paper, we focus on the analysis of data that can be described by probability measures
supported on a Euclidean space, by way of optimal transport. Our main objective is to …
