Abstract: The diffusion mean is an intrinsic way of considering the mean of a dataset located on a Riemannian manifold. It also allows considering general types of covariances through a Brownian motion that is not anisotropic. We describe this approach and how computing this means and covariance is related to the most probable paths on manifolds, which are different from geodesics.
