“…average on the space of probability measures, which is well-adapted to the geometry of the data [ Álvarez-Esteban et al, 2016, Anderes et al, 2016. With recent progress on their computation [Cuturi and Doucet, 2014, Bonneel et al, 2015, Kroshnin et al, 2019, Ge et al, 2019, Heinemann et al, 2020 they establish themselves even further as a promising tool in many fields of data analysis, such as texture mixing [Rabin et al, 2011], distributional clustering [Ye et al, 2017], histogram regression [Bonneel et al, 2016], domain adaptation [Montesuma and Mboula, 2021] and unsupervised learning [Schmitz et al, 2018], among others. However, a well known drawback of the Wasserstein distance and its barycenters in various applications is their limitation to measures with equal total mass.…”
