A prelude to statistics in Wasserstein metric spaces
PurposeThis paper aims mainly at introducing applied statisticians and econometricians to the current research methodology with non-Euclidean data sets. Specifically, it provides the basis and rationale for statistics in Wasserstein space, where the metric on probability measures is taken as a Wasserstein metric arising from optimal transport theory.Design/methodology/approachThe authors spell out the basis and rationale for using Wasserstein metrics on the data space of (random) probability measures.FindingsIn elaborating the new statistical analysis of non-Euclidean data sets, the paper illustrates the generalization of traditional aspects of statistical inference following Frechet's program.Originality/valueBesides the elaboration of research methodology for a new data analysis, the paper discusses the applications of Wasserstein metrics to the robustness of financial risk measures.
