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 …

Distribution's template estimate with Wasserstein metrics

E Boissard, T Le Gouic, JM Loubes - 2015 - projecteuclid.org
In this paper, we tackle the problem of comparing distributions of random variables and
defining a mean pattern between a sample of random events. Using barycenters of …

Characterization of barycenters in the Wasserstein space by averaging optimal transport maps

J Bigot, T Klein - ESAIM: Probability and Statistics, 2018 - esaim-ps.org
This paper is concerned by the study of barycenters for random probability measures in the
Wasserstein space. Using a duality argument, we give a precise characterization of the …

[PDF][PDF] Consistent estimation of a population barycenter in the Wasserstein space

J Bigot, T Klein - ArXiv e-prints, 2012 - perso.math.univ-toulouse.fr
We define a notion of barycenter for random probability measures in the Wasserstein space.
We study the population barycenter in terms of existence and uniqueness. Using a duality …

Integral approximation by kernel smoothing

B Delyon, F Portier - 2016 - projecteuclid.org
Abstract Let (X_1,...,X_n) be an iid sequence of random variables in R^d, d≧1. We show
that, for any function φ:R^d→R, under regularity conditions, n^1/2(n^-1i=1^nφ(X_i)f(X_i) …

Statistical properties of the quantile normalization method for density curve alignment

S Gallón, JM Loubes, E Maza - Mathematical biosciences, 2013 - Elsevier
The article investigates the large sample properties of the quantile normalization method by
Bolstad et al.(2003)[4] which has become one of the most popular methods to align density …

Estimation of translation, rotation, and scaling between noisy images using the Fourier–Mellin transform

J Bigot, F Gamboa, M Vimond - SIAM Journal on Imaging Sciences, 2009 - SIAM
In this paper we focus on extended Euclidean registration of a set of noisy images. We
provide an appropriate statistical model for this kind of registration problem, and a new …

Statistical methods for outlier detection in space telemetries

C Barreyre, L Boussouf, B Cabon, B Laurent… - Space Operations …, 2019 - Springer
Satellites monitoring is an important task to prevent the failure of satellites. For this purpose,
a large number of time series are analyzed in order to detect anomalies. In this paper, we …
