Starting September 25, the OTMLE (Optimal Transport and Targeted Maximum Likelihood Estimation) reading group explores the intersection of optimal transport theory and TMLE, offering a fresh perspective on how TMLE fluctuations of probability measures can be understood. The group covers key topics, including history of optimal transport, Wasserstein metrics, geodesics, gradient flows, statistical estimation, and information geometry. Each session focuses on one of these themes, providing participants with a comprehensive foundation to bridge optimal transport with statistical estimation techniques in TMLE.
