Generate data



In [ ]:

    
#%% parameters

n = 100  # nb bins

# bin positions
x = np.arange(n, dtype=np.float64)

# Gaussian distributions
a = gauss(n, m=20, s=5)  # m= mean, s= std
b = gauss(n, m=60, s=10)

# loss matrix
M = ot.dist(x.reshape((n, 1)), x.reshape((n, 1)))
M /= M.max()

Plot distributions and loss matrix



In [ ]:

    
#%% plot the distributions

pl.figure(1, figsize=(6.4, 3))
pl.plot(x, a, 'b', label='Source distribution')
pl.plot(x, b, 'r', label='Target distribution')
pl.legend()

#%% plot distributions and loss matrix

pl.figure(2, figsize=(5, 5))
ot.plot.plot1D_mat(a, b, M, 'Cost matrix M')

Solve EMD



In [ ]:

    
#%% EMD

G0 = ot.emd(a, b, M)

pl.figure(3, figsize=(5, 5))
ot.plot.plot1D_mat(a, b, G0, 'OT matrix G0')

Solve Sinkhorn



In [ ]:

    
#%% Sinkhorn

lambd = 1e-3
Gs = ot.sinkhorn(a, b, M, lambd, verbose=True)

pl.figure(4, figsize=(5, 5))
ot.plot.plot1D_mat(a, b, Gs, 'OT matrix Sinkhorn')

pl.show()
