We estimate the rate of convergence for the Kantorovich (or Wasserstein) distance between empirical measures of i.i.d. random variables associated with the Laguerre model of order $\alpha$ on $(0,\infty)^N$ and their common law, which is…
We study the behavior of the Wasserstein-$2$ distance between discrete measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ when both measures are smoothed by small amounts of Gaussian noise. This procedure, known as Gaussian-smoothed optimal…
The autocovariance and cross-covariance functions naturally appear in many time series procedures (e.g., autoregression or prediction). Under assumptions, empirical versions of the autocovariance and cross-covariance are asymptotically…
Parameter estimation is a fundamental challenge in machine learning, crucial for tasks such as neural network weight fitting and Bayesian inference. This paper focuses on the complexity of estimating translation $\boldsymbol{\mu} \in…
We propose a variational approach to approximate measures with measures uniformly distributed over a 1 dimentional set. The problem consists in minimizing a Wasserstein distance as a data term with a regularization given by the length of…

We study aspects of the Wasserstein distance in the context of self-similar measures. Computing this distance between two measures involves minimising certain moment integrals over the space of \emph{couplings}, which are measures on the…
