Quantitative Stability of the Shadow for Wasserstein Projections and Sample Complexity

Jakwang Kim

In this paper, we study the stability of the shadow, a projection of a measure onto the set of couplings with respect to the Wasserstein distance. The shadow was introduced by \cit…

Stability of Wasserstein projections in convex order via metric extrapolation

Jakwang Kim, Young-Heon Kim, Andrea Natale

We build on recent work linking backward and forward W2-projections in convex order with the recently introduced metric extrapolation problem to derive new quantitative stability e…

Extension of coupling via the Projection of Optimal Transport

Jakwang Kim, Young-Heon Kim, Chan Park

In many statistical settings, two types of data are available: coupled data, which preserve the joint structure among variables but are limited in size due to cost or privacy const…

Optimal sequencing depth for single-cell RNA-sequencing in Wasserstein space

Jakwang Kim, Sharvaj Kubal, Geoffrey Schiebinger

How many samples should one collect for an empirical distribution to be as close as possible to the true population? This question is not trivial in the context of single-cell RNA-…

Robust Estimation in metric spaces: Achieving Exponential Concentration with a Fréchet Median

Jakwang Kim, Jiyoung Park, Anirban Bhattacharya

There is growing interest in developing statistical estimators that achieve exponential concentration around a population target even when the data distribution has heavier than ex…

Statistical inference of convex order by Wasserstein projection

Jakwang Kim, Young-Heon Kim, Yuanlong Ruan +1

Ranking distributions according to a stochastic order has wide applications in diverse areas. Although stochastic dominance has received much attention, convex order, particularly…
