In optimal transport, a Wasserstein barycenter (Insert reference of Sant) is a probability measure probability measure that acts as a center of mass between two or more probability measures. It generalizes the notions of physical barycenters and geometric centroids.
Introduction
Motivation
In astronomy, the barycenter is the center of mass of two or more objects that orbit each other, and in geometry, a centroid is the arithmetic mean position of all the points in an object. Wasserstein barycenters attempt to
