Distributionally Robust Stochastic Optimization with Wasserstein Distance [PDF]
Mathematics of Operations Research, 2016 Distributionally robust stochastic optimization (DRSO) is an approach to optimization under uncertainty in which, instead of assuming that there is a known true underlying probability distribution, one hedges against a chosen set of distributions.

Distributions: The evolution of a mathematical theory
Historia Mathematica, 1983 AbstractThe theory of distributions, or generalized functions, evolved from various concepts of generalized solutions of partial differential equations and generalized differentiation. Some of the principal steps in this evolution are described in this paper.

A Mathematical Framework for Learning Probability Distributions
Journal of Machine Learning, 2022 The modeling of probability distributions, specifically generative modeling and density estimation, has become an immensely popular subject in recent years by virtue of its outstanding performance on sophisticated data such as images and texts. Nevertheless, a theoretical understanding of its success is still incomplete.

Statistical Aspects of Wasserstein Distances [PDF]
Annual Review of Statistics and Its Application, 2018 Wasserstein distances are metrics on probability distributions inspired by the problem of optimal mass transportation. Roughly speaking, they measure the minimal effort required to reconfigure the probability mass of one distribution in order to recover ...

Infinite series involving harmonic numbers and reciprocal of binomial coefficients
AIMS MathematicsYamamoto's integral was the integral associated with 2-posets, which was first introduced by Yamamoto. In this paper, we obtained the values of infinite series involving harmonic numbers and reciprocal of binomial coefficients by using some techniques of
