Multinomial matrices

Manifolds.MultinomialMatrices β€” Type
MultinomialMatrices{T,TPM} <: AbstractPowerManifold{ℝ}

The multinomial manifold consists of m column vectors, where each column is of length n and is a discrete probability distribution, i.e.

\[\mathcal{MN}(n,m) \coloneqq \bigl\{ p ∈ ℝ^{nΓ—m}\ \big|\ p_{i,j} > 0 \text{ for all } i=1,…,n, j=1,…,m \text{ and } p^{\mathrm{T}}\mathbb{1}_n = \mathbb{1}_m\bigr\},\]

where $\mathbb{1}_k$ is the vector of length $k$ containing ones.

This yields exactly the same metric as considering the product metric of the probability vectors, i.e. PowerManifold of the $(n-1)$-dimensional ProbabilitySimplex.

The ProbabilitySimplex is stored internally within M.manifold, such that all functions of AbstractPowerManifold can be used directly.

Constructor

MultinomialMatrices(n::Int, m::Int; parameter::Symbol=:type)

Generate the manifold of matrices $ℝ^{nΓ—m}$ such that the $m$ columns are discrete probability distributions, i.e. sum up to one.

parameter: whether a type parameter should be used to store n and m. By default size is stored in type. Value can either be :field or :type.

Functions

Most functions are directly implemented for an AbstractPowerManifold with ArrayPowerRepresentation except the following special cases:

ManifoldDiff.riemannian_gradient β€” Method
riemannian_gradient(M::MultinomialMatrices, p, Y; kwargs...)

Let $Y$ denote the Euclidean gradient of a function $\tilde f$ defined in the embedding neighborhood of M, then the Riemannian gradient is given by Equation 5 of [DH19] as

\[ \operatorname{grad} f(p) = \proj_{T_p\mathcal M}(YβŠ™p)\]

where $βŠ™$ denotes the Hadamard or elementwise product.

ManifoldsBase.project β€” Method
project(M::MultinomialMatrices, p, Y)

Project Y from the embedding onto the tangent space at p on the MultinomialMatrices M, orthogonally with respect to the Fisher–Rao metric. Column by column the formula reads

\[ \operatorname{proj}_{T_p\mathcal M}(Y)_j = Y_j - ⟨\mathbb{1}_n, Y_j⟩p_j, \qquad j = 1,…,m,\]

where $p_j$ and $Y_j$ are the $j$th columns of $p$ and $Y$, respectively.
