Many numerical and learning algorithms rely on the solution of the Monge-Kantorovich problem and Wasserstein distances, which provide appropriate distributional metrics. While the natural approach is to treat the problem as an…
We consider the transfer operators of non-uniformly expanding maps for potentials of various regularity, and show that a specific property of potentials ("flatness") implies a Ruelle-Perron-Frobenius Theorem and a decay of the transfer…
In regression modelling approach, the main step is to fit the regression line as close as possible to the target variable. In this process most algorithms try to fit all of the data in a single line and hence fitting all parts of target…
