We study a generalization of the Fr\'echet mean on metric spaces, which we call $\phi$-means. Our generalization is indexed by a convex function $\phi$. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for $\phi$-means to be finite and provide a…

The existing Fr\'echet regression is actually defined within a linear framework, since the weight function in the Fr\'echet objective function is linearly defined, and the resulting Fr\'echet regression function is identified to be a linear…

For sets $\mathcal Q$ and $\mathcal Y$, the generalized Fr\'echet mean $m \in \mathcal Q$ of a random variable $Y$, which has values in $\mathcal Y$, is any minimizer of $q\mapsto \mathbb E[\mathfrak c(q,Y)]$, where $\mathfrak c \colon…

Supervised learning results typically rely on assumptions of i.i.d. data. Unfortunately, those assumptions are commonly violated in practice. In this work, we tackle such problem by focusing on domain generalization: a formalization where…
