The Fisher-Rao distance between two probability distribution functions, as well as other divergence measures, is related to entropy and is in the core of the research area of information geometry. It can provide a framework and enlarge the perspective of analysis for a wide variety of domains, such as statistical inference, image processing (texture classification and inpainting), clustering processes and morphological classification. We present here a compact summary of results regarding the Fisher-Rao distance in the space of multivariate normal distributions including some historical background, closed forms in special cases, bounds, numerical approaches and references to recent applications. |
