Optimal Transport and Information Geometry for Machine Learning and Data Science

Описание к видео Optimal Transport and Information Geometry for Machine Learning and Data Science

Optimal transport and information geometry provide two distinct frameworks for studying the distance between probability measures. Although these are separate theories, there are many connections between them and they both have applications to data science and machine learning.

This video is adapted from a talk at the SIAM Conference on Mathematics of Data Science (MDS22).


At several points in the recording the main microphone cut out so I had to use back-up audio. Sorry for those audio hiccups.
