Convergence of the empirical measure in expected Wasserstein distance: non asymptotic explicit bounds in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$

Abstract

We provide some non asymptotic bounds, with explicit constants, that measure the rate of convergence, in expected Wasserstein distance, of the empirical measure associated to an i.i.d. $N$-sample of a given probability distribution on ${\mathbb{R}}^d$.
