- class ott.geometry.geometry.Geometry(cost_matrix=None, kernel_matrix=None, epsilon=None, relative_epsilon=None, scale_epsilon=None, scale_cost=None, **kwargs)[source]#
Base class to define ground costs/kernels used in optimal transport.
Optimal transport problems are intrinsically geometric: they compute an optimal way to transport mass from one configuration onto another. To define what is meant by optimality of a transport requires defining a cost, of moving mass from one among several sources, towards one out of multiple targets. These sources and targets can be provided as points in vectors spaces, grids, or more generally exclusively described through a (dissimilarity) cost matrix, or almost equivalently, a (similarity) kernel matrix.
Once that cost or kernel matrix is set, the
Geometry
class provides a basic operations to be run with the Sinkhorn algorithm.- Parameters
cost_matrix (
Optional
[ndarray
]) – jnp.ndarray<float>[num_a, num_b]: a cost matrix storing n x m costs.kernel_matrix (
Optional
[ndarray
]) – jnp.ndarray<float>[num_a, num_b]: a kernel matrix storing n x m kernel values.epsilon (
Union
[Epsilon
,float
,None
]) – a regularization parameter. If aott.geometry.epsilon_scheduler.Epsilon
object is passed, other parameters below are ignored in practice. If the parameter is a float, then this is understood to be the regularization that is needed, unlessrelative_epsilon
below isTrue
, in which caseepsilon
is understood as a normalized quantity, to be scaled by the mean value of thecost_matrix
.relative_epsilon (
Optional
[bool
]) – whether epsilon is passed relative to scale of problem, here understood as mean value ofcost_matrix
.scale_epsilon (
Optional
[float
]) – the scale multiplier for epsilon.scale_cost (
Union
[Literal
[‘mean’, ‘max_cost’, ‘median’],bool
,float
,None
]) – option to rescale the cost matrix. Implemented scalings are ‘median’, ‘mean’ and ‘max_cost’. Alternatively, a float factor can be given to rescale the cost such thatcost_matrix /= scale_cost
. If True, use ‘mean’.kwargs (
Any
) – additional kwargs to epsilon.
Note
When defining a
Geometry
through acost_matrix
, it is important to select anepsilon
regularization parameter that is meaningful. That parameter can be provided by the user, or assigned a default value through a simple rule, using the mean cost value implied by thecost_matrix
