Fast proxy centers for Jeffreys centroids: The Jeffreys-F...
Frank Nielsen · 2024-10-18 · via cs.IT updates on arXiv.org

The symmetric Kullback-Leibler centroid also called the Jeffreys centroid of a set of mutually absolutely continuous probability distributions on a measure space provides a notion of centrality which has proven useful in many tasks including information retrieval, information fusion, and clustering in image, video and sound processing. However, the Jeffreys centroid is not available in closed-form for sets of categorical or normal distributions, two widely used statistical models, and thus need to be approximated numerically in practice. In this paper, we first propose the new Jeffreys-Fisher-Rao center defined as the Fisher-Rao midpoint of the sided Kullback-Leibler centroids as a plug-in replacement of the Jeffreys centroid. This Jeffreys-Fisher-Rao center admits a generic formula for uni-parameter exponential family distributions, and closed-form formula for categorical and normal distributions, matches exactly the Jeffreys centroid for same-mean normal distributions, and is experimentally observed in practice to be close to the Jeffreys centroid. Second, we define a new type of inductive centers generalizing the principle of Gauss arithmetic-geometric double sequence mean for pairs of densities of any given exponential family. This center is shown experimentally to approximate very well the Jeffreys centroid and is suggested to use when the Jeffreys-Fisher-Rao center is not available in closed form. Moreover, this Gauss-Bregman inductive center always converges and matches the Jeffreys centroid for sets of same-mean normal distributions. We report on our experiments demonstrating the use of the Jeffreys-Fisher-Rao and Gauss-Bregman centers instead of the Jeffreys centroid. Finally, we conclude this work by reinterpreting these fast proxy centers of Jeffreys centroids under the lens of dually flat spaces in information geometry.
