α-Geodesical Skew Divergence

Abstract: The asymmetric skew divergence smooths one of the distributions by mixing it, to a degree determined by the parameter λ, with the other distribution. Such divergence is an approximation of the KL divergence that does not require the target distribution to be absolutely continuous with respect to the source distribution. In this paper, an information geometric generalization of the skew divergence called the α-geodesical skew divergence is proposed, and its properties are studied.

“…Future research direction include conducting quantitative evaluation experiments for abstract and difficult-to-evaluate problems, such as those covered in this study, creating datasets that enable these experiments (e.g., inspired by [48]), examining models that assume probability distributions other than the multidimensional Gaussian distribution, and further analysis on the best distance measure to use [49,50,51]. In particular, the framework of information geometry [37,37,52], which considers Riemannian manifolds formed by probability distributions, is very useful, and many machine learning algorithms have been analyzed [53,54,55,56,57,58].…”
