Statistical manifold

In mathematics, a statistical manifold is a Riemannian manifold, each of whose points is a probability distribution. Statistical manifolds provide a setting for the field of information geometry. The Fisher information metric provides a metric on these manifolds. Following this definition, the log-likelihood function is a differentiable map and the score is an inclusion. (Wikipedia).

What is a manifold?

I define topological manifolds. Motivated by the prospect of calculus on topological manifolds, I introduce smooth manifolds. At the end I point out how one needs to change the definitions, to obtain C^1 or even complex manifolds. To learn more about manifolds, see Lee's "Introduction to

Hao Xu (7/26/22): Frobenius algebra structure of statistical manifold

Abstract: In information geometry, a statistical manifold is a Riemannian manifold (M,g) equipped with a totally symmetric (0,3)-tensor. We show that the tangent bundle of a statistical manifold has a Frobenius algebra structure if and only if the sectional K-curvature vanishes. This gives

Noémie Combe - How many Frobenius manifolds are there?

In this talk an overview of my recent results is presented. In a joint work with Yu. Manin (2020) we discovered that an object central to information geometry: statistical manifolds (related to exponential families) have an F-manifold structure. This algebraic structure is a more general v
