New Metrics Between Rational Spectra and their Connection to Optimal Transport
Fredrik Bagge Carlson, Mandar Chitre
We propose a series of metrics between pairs of signals, linear systems or rational spectra, based on optimal transport and linear-systems theory. The metrics operate on the locations of the poles of rational functions and admit very efficient computation of distances, barycenters, displacement interpolation and projections. We establish the connection to the Wasserstein distance between rational spectra, and demonstrate the use of the metrics in tasks such as signal classification, clustering, detection and approximation.
