Using earth mover’s distance for viral outbreak investigations [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2020 Background RNA viruses mutate at extremely high rates, forming an intra-host viral population of closely related variants, which allows them to evade the host’s immune system and makes them particularly dangerous.

Differentiable Earth mover’s distance for data compression at the high-luminosity LHC [PDF]
Machine Learning: Science and Technology, 2023 The Earth mover’s distance (EMD) is a useful metric for image recognition and classification, but its usual implementations are not differentiable or too slow to be used as a loss function for training other algorithms via gradient descent. In this paper,

EMBEDDING SIGNALS ON GRAPHS WITH UNBALANCED DIFFUSION EARTH MOVER'S DISTANCE. [PDF]
Proc IEEE Int Conf Acoust Speech Signal Process, 2022 In modern relational machine learning it is common to encounter large graphs that arise via interactions or similarities between observations in many domains. Further, in many cases the target entities for analysis are actually signals on such graphs. We

A Spike Train Distance Robust to Firing Rate Changes Based on the Earth Mover’s Distance [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2019 Neural spike train analysis methods are mainly used for understanding the temporal aspects of neural information processing. One approach is to measure the dissimilarity between the spike trains of a pair of neurons, often referred to as the spike train ...
