Lifting Dual Connections with the Riemann Extension

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Let (M,g) be a Riemannian manifold equipped with a pair of dual connections (∇,∇*). Such a structure is known as a statistical manifold since it was defined in the context of information geometry.

Lie groupoids in information geometry

open access: yes, 2019
We demonstrate that the proper general setting for contrast (potential) functions in statistical and information geometry is the one provided by Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids.

F‐Manifolds and geometry of information [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the London Mathematical Society, 2020
The theory of $F$-manifolds, and more generally, manifolds endowed with commutative and associative multiplication of their tangent fields, was discovered and formalised in various models of quantum field theory involving algebraic and analytic geometry, at least since 1990's. The focus of this paper consists in the demonstration that various spaces of

On the Fisher Metric of Conditional Probability Polytopes

open access: yesEntropy, 2014
We consider three different approaches to define natural Riemannian metrics on polytopes of stochastic matrices. First, we define a natural class of stochastic maps between these polytopes and give a metric characterization of Chentsov type in terms of ...

Optimal Nonlinear Estimation in Statistical Manifolds with Application to Sensor Network Localization

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
Information geometry enables a deeper understanding of the methods of statistical inference. In this paper, the problem of nonlinear parameter estimation is considered from a geometric viewpoint using a natural gradient descent on statistical manifolds ...

Hamilton-Jacobi Theory and Information Geometry

open access: yes, 2017
Recently, a method to dynamically define a divergence function $D$ for a given statistical manifold $(\mathcal{M}\,,g\,,T)$ by means of the Hamilton-Jacobi theory associated with a suitable Lagrangian function $\mathfrak{L}$ on $T\mathcal{M}$ has been ...

Information Geometry for Covariance Estimation in Heterogeneous Clutter with Total Bregman Divergence

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
This paper presents a covariance matrix estimation method based on information geometry in a heterogeneous clutter. In particular, the problem of covariance estimation is reformulated as the computation of geometric median for covariance matrices ...

A Unified Approach to Aitchison’s, Dually Affine, and Transport Geometries of the Probability Simplex

open access: yesAxioms
A critical processing step for AI algorithms is mapping the raw data to a landscape where the similarity of two data points is conveniently defined. Frequently, when the data points are compositions of probability functions, the similarity is reduced to ...
