abstract:
In this talk we treat the approximation of a probability measure ì on
R^d, d > 2 by its empirical measure ì_N (interpreted as random quantizer) in the Wasserstein-metric. We show that the expected
p-th power (p > 0) of the Wasserstein-metric of ì and ì_N generated by N i.i.d. samples of ì
converges to zero with optimal rate N^(−p/d) as N goes to infinity.
