arXiv:2605. 09916v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce the observable Wasserstein distance, a framework for deriving lower bounds on the Wasserstein distance between probability measures on Polish metric spaces, designed to bypass the computational intractability of exact optimal transport in large-scale, non-Euclidean datasets.
arXiv:2412. 20556v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study distributionally robust optimization (DRO) for robust inference when the worst-case distribution is continuous, leading to significant computational challenges due to the infinite-dimensional nature of the optimization problem.
The paper introduces a geometric framework for measuring how far empirical datasets deviate from the Gaussian family using optimal transport theory. It defines two new quantities—the relative Wasserstein angle and the orthogonal projection distance—based on the cone structure of the relative translation invariant quadratic Wasserstein space, and shows that the usual moment‑matching Gaussian is not generally the $W_2$‑nearest Gaussian. Closed‑form expressions are derived for one‑dimensional and several location–scale families, while a numerical approximation is proposed for higher dimensions, with experiments demonstrating convergence, stability, and the angle’s robustness as a non‑Gaussianity indicator.
