New multi-dimensional Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance formulation proposed

Researchers have developed a new formulation for the multi-dimensional Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) distance, an integral probability metric that measures the difference between probability distributions. This novel approach maximizes differences over orthogonal dominating rectangular ranges and provides theoretical guarantees for its convergence and approximation error. The method allows for efficient computation of the distance in up to four dimensions, enabling a delta-precision two-sample hypothesis test. AI

IMPACT This research could lead to more robust statistical methods for evaluating generative models and AI systems.

    Efficient and Stable Multi-Dimensional Kolmogorov-Smirnov Distance

    arXiv:2504.11299v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We revisit extending the Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance between probability distributions to the multi-dimensional setting, and make new arguments about the proper way to approach this generalization. Our proposed formulation…
