The Fisher-Rao Distance between Multivariate Normal Distributions: Special Cases, Boundsand Applications

The Fisher–Rao distance is a measure of dissimilarity between probability distributions, which, under certain regularity conditions of the statistical model, is up to a scaling factor the unique Riemannian metric invariant under Markov morphisms. It is related to the Shannon entropy and has been use...
