Researchers have developed a new framework for Fréchet regression, a method for modeling relationships between covariates and response variables on general metric spaces. This work specifically addresses the challenges of computing conditional counterparts in non-Euclidean spaces, which often lead to non-convex optimization problems. The study provides conditions for the existence of a minimizer and characterizes the optimization landscape, proving the absence of local maxima under these conditions. Additionally, a projection-free algorithm is proposed for approximate computation, along with a stochastic reformulation for large-scale applications. The methods have been validated on biological networks and Diffusion Tensor Imaging problems. AI
