    Gaussian processes with multidimensional distribution inputs via optimal transport and Hilbertian embedding
    (Ithaca, NY : Cornell University Library, 2020) Bachoc, François; Suvorikova, Alexandra; Ginsbourger, David; Loubes, Jean-Michel; Spokoiny, Vladimir
    In this work, we propose a way to construct Gaussian processes indexed by multidimensional distributions. More precisely, we tackle the problem of defining positive definite kernels between multivariate distributions via notions of optimal transport and appealing to Hilbert space embeddings. Besides presenting a characterization of radial positive definite and strictly positive definite kernels on general Hilbert spaces, we investigate the statistical properties of our theoretical and empirical kernels, focusing in particular on consistency as well as the special case of Gaussian distributions. A wide set of applications is presented, both using simulations and implementation with real data.
