fdWasserstein (version 1.0)

fdWasserstein-package: tools:::Rd_package_title("fdWasserstein")

Description

A package containing functions developed to support statistical analysis on functional covariance operators. In particular,

  • Function dwasserstein computes the Wasserstein-Procrustes distance between two covariances.

  • Function gaussBary computes the Frechet mean of K covariances with respect to the Procrustes metrics (equivalently, the Wasserstein barycenter of centered Gaussian processes with corresponding covariances) via steepest gradient descent. See Masarotto, Panaretos & Zemel (2019).

  • Function tangentPCA performs the tangent space principal component analysis considered in Masarotto, Panaretos & Zemel (2022).

  • Function wassersteinTest lets to test the null hypothesis that K covariances are equal using the methodology suggested by Masarotto, Panaretos & Zemel (2022).

  • Function wassersteinCluster implements the soft partion procedure proposed by Masarotto & Masarotto (2023).
