We will solve the Bakery/Cafés problem of transporting croissants from a number of Bakeries to Cafés in a City (in this case Manhattan). We did a quick google map search in Manhattan for bakeries and Cafés:

We extracted from this search their positions and generated fictional production and sale number (that both sum to the same value).

We have access to the position of Bakeries bakery_pos and their respective production bakery_prod which describe the source distribution. The Cafés where the croissants are sold are defined also by their position cafe_pos and cafe_prod, and describe the target distribution. For fun we also provide a map Imap that will illustrate the position of these shops in the city.

Now we load the data

Bakery production: [31. 48. 82. 30. 40. 48. 89. 73.]
Cafe sale: [82. 88. 92. 88. 91.]
Total croissants : 441.0

Next we plot the position of the bakeries and cafés on the map. The size of the circle is proportional to their production.

pl.figure(1, (7, 6))
pl.clf()
pl.imshow(Imap, interpolation="bilinear")  # plot the map
pl.scatter(
    bakery_pos[:, 0], bakery_pos[:, 1], s=bakery_prod, c="r", ec="k", label="Bakeries"
)
pl.scatter(cafe_pos[:, 0], cafe_pos[:, 1], s=cafe_prod, c="b", ec="k", label="Cafés")
pl.legend()
pl.title("Manhattan Bakeries and Cafés")

Text(0.5, 1.0, 'Manhattan Bakeries and Cafés')

We can now compute the cost matrix between the bakeries and the cafés, which will be the transport cost matrix. This can be done using the ot.dist function that defaults to squared Euclidean distance but can return other things such as cityblock (or Manhattan distance).

C = ot.dist(bakery_pos, cafe_pos)

labels = [str(i) for i in range(len(bakery_prod))]
f = pl.figure(2, (14, 7))
pl.clf()
pl.subplot(121)
pl.imshow(Imap, interpolation="bilinear")  # plot the map
for i in range(len(cafe_pos)):
    pl.text(
        cafe_pos[i, 0],
        cafe_pos[i, 1],
        labels[i],
        color="b",
        fontsize=14,
        fontweight="bold",
        ha="center",
        va="center",
    )
for i in range(len(bakery_pos)):
    pl.text(
        bakery_pos[i, 0],
        bakery_pos[i, 1],
        labels[i],
        color="r",
        fontsize=14,
        fontweight="bold",
        ha="center",
        va="center",
    )
pl.title("Manhattan Bakeries and Cafés")

ax = pl.subplot(122)
im = pl.imshow(C, cmap="coolwarm")
pl.title("Cost matrix")
cbar = pl.colorbar(im, ax=ax, shrink=0.5, use_gridspec=True)
cbar.ax.set_ylabel("cost", rotation=-90, va="bottom")

pl.xlabel("Cafés")
pl.ylabel("Bakeries")
pl.tight_layout()

The red cells in the matrix image show the bakeries and cafés that are further away, and thus more costly to transport from one to the other, while the blue ones show those that are very close to each other, with respect to the squared Euclidean distance.

The function returns the transport matrix, which we can then visualize (next section).

A good visualization of the OT matrix in the 2D plane is to denote the transportation of mass between a Bakery and a Café by a line. This can easily be done with a double for loop.

In order to make it more interpretable one can also use the alpha parameter of plot and set it to alpha=G[i,j]/G.max().

The transport matrix gives the number of croissants that can be transported from each bakery to each café. We can see that the bakeries only need to transport croissants to one or two cafés, the transport matrix being very sparse.

The resulting wasserstein loss loss is of the form:

\[W=\sum_{i,j}\gamma_{i,j}C_{i,j}\]

where \(\gamma\) is the optimal transport matrix.

Wasserstein loss (EMD) = 10838179.41

The Sinkhorn algorithm is very simple to code. You can implement it directly using the following pseudo-code

In this algorithm, \(\oslash\) corresponds to the element-wise division.

An alternative is to use the POT toolbox with ot.sinkhorn

Be careful of numerical problems. A good pre-processing for Sinkhorn is to divide the cost matrix C by its maximum value.

# Compute Sinkhorn transport matrix from algorithm
reg = 0.1
K = np.exp(-C / C.max() / reg)
nit = 100
u = np.ones((len(bakery_prod),))
for i in range(1, nit):
    v = cafe_prod / np.dot(K.T, u)
    u = bakery_prod / (np.dot(K, v))
ot_sink_algo = np.atleast_2d(u).T * (
    K * v.T
)  # Equivalent to np.dot(np.diag(u), np.dot(K, np.diag(v)))

# Compute Sinkhorn transport matrix with POT
ot_sinkhorn = ot.sinkhorn(bakery_prod, cafe_prod, reg=reg, M=C / C.max())

# Difference between the 2
print(
    "Difference between algo and ot.sinkhorn = {0:.2g}".format(
        np.sum(np.power(ot_sink_algo - ot_sinkhorn, 2))
    )
)

Difference between algo and ot.sinkhorn = 2.1e-20

print("Min. of Sinkhorn's transport matrix = {0:.2g}".format(np.min(ot_sinkhorn)))

Min. of Sinkhorn's transport matrix = 0.0008

We notice right away that the matrix is not sparse at all with Sinkhorn, each bakery delivering croissants to all 5 cafés with that solution. Also, this solution gives a transport with fractions, which does not make sense in the case of croissants. This was not the case with EMD.

reg_parameter = np.logspace(-3, 0, 20)

    ot_sinkhorn = ot.sinkhorn(
        bakery_prod, cafe_prod, reg=reg_parameter[k], M=C / C.max()
    )
    time_sinkhorn_reg[k] = time.time() - start

    if k % 4 == 0 and k > 0:  # we only plot a few
        ax = pl.subplot(1, 5, k // 4)

This series of graph shows that the solution of Sinkhorn starts with something very similar to EMD (although not sparse) for very small values of the regularization parameter, and tends to a more uniform solution as the regularization parameter increases.

Text(3.972222222222223, 0.5, 'Wasserstein loss')

In this last graph, we show the impact of the regularization parameter on the Wasserstein loss. We can see that higher values of reg leads to a much higher Wasserstein loss.

The Wasserstein loss of EMD is displayed for comparison. The Wasserstein loss of Sinkhorn can be a little lower than that of EMD for low values of reg, but it quickly gets much higher.
