In this paper, we use tools of information geometry to compare, average and classify histograms. Beta distributions are fitted to the histograms and the corresponding Fisher information geometry is used for comparison. We show that this geometry is negatively curved, which guarantees uniqueness of the notion of mean, and makes it suitable to...

We introduce Geomstats, an open-source Python toolbox for computations and statistics on nonlinear manifolds, such as hyperbolic spaces, spaces of symmetric positive definite matrices, Lie groups of transformations, and many more. We provide object-oriented and extensively unit-tested implementations. Among others, manifolds come equipped with...

There is a growing interest in leveraging differential geometry in the machine learning community. Yet, the adoption of the associated geometric computations has been inhibited by the lack of a reference implementation. Such an implementation should typically allow its users: (i) to get intuition on concepts from differential geometry through a...
