Measure estimation on manifolds: an optimal transport approach

V Divol - Probability Theory and Related Fields, 2022 - Springer
Assume that we observe iid points lying close to some unknown d-dimensional C k
submanifold M in a possibly high-dimensional space. We study the problem of …

Universally consistent estimation of the reach

A Cholaquidis, R Fraiman, L Moreno - Journal of Statistical Planning and …, 2023 - Elsevier
The reach of a set M⊂ R d, also known as condition number when M is a manifold, was
introduced by Federer in 1959. The reach is a central concept in geometric measure theory …

Computable Bounds for the Reach and r-Convexity of Subsets of

R Cotsakis - Discrete & Computational Geometry, 2025 - Springer
The convexity of a set can be generalized to the two weaker notions of positive reach and r-
convexity; both describe the regularity of a set's boundary. For any compact subset of R d …

Tight bounds for the learning of homotopy à la Niyogi, Smale, and Weinberger for subsets of Euclidean spaces and of Riemannian manifolds

D Attali, HDP Kouřimská, C Fillmore, I Ghosh, A Lieutier… - 2024 - hal.science
In this article we extend and strengthen the seminal work by Niyogi, Smale, and Weinberger
on the learning of the homotopy type from a sample of an underlying space. In their work …

Estimating the convex hull of the image of a set with smooth boundary: error bounds and applications

T Lew, R Bonalli, L Janson, M Pavone - Discrete & Computational …, 2024 - Springer
We study the problem of estimating the convex hull of the image f (X)⊂ R n of a compact set
X⊂ R m with smooth boundary through a smooth function f: R m→ R n. Assuming that f is a …

Minimax adaptive estimation in manifold inference

V Divol - Electronic Journal of Statistics, 2021 - projecteuclid.org
We focus on the problem of manifold estimation: given a set of observations sampled close
to some unknown submanifold M, one wants to recover information about the geometry of M …

Topologically penalized regression on manifolds

O Hacquard, K Balasubramanian, G Blanchard… - Journal of machine …, 2022 - jmlr.org
We study a regression problem on a compact manifold M. In order to take advantage of the
underlying geometry and topology of the data, the regression task is performed on the basis …

Effective theory building and manifold learning

DPW Freeborn - Synthese, 2025 - Springer
Manifold learning and effective model building are generally viewed as fundamentally
different types of procedure. After all, in one we build a simplified model of the data, in the …
