1.3 优点

Wasserstein距离相比KL散度、JS散度的优越性在于，即便两个分布没有重叠，Wasserstein距离仍然能够反映它们的远近。

class SinkhornDistance(nn.Module):
    r"""
    Given two empirical measures each with :math:`P_1` locations
    :math:`x\in\mathbb{R}^{D_1}` and :math:`P_2` locations :math:`y\in\mathbb{R}^{D_2}`,
    outputs an approximation of the regularized OT cost for point clouds.
    Args:
        eps (float): regularization coefficient
        max_iter (int): maximum number of Sinkhorn iterations
        reduction (string, optional): Specifies the reduction to apply to the output:
            'none' | 'mean' | 'sum'. 'none': no reduction will be applied,
            'mean': the sum of the output will be divided by the number of
            elements in the output, 'sum': the output will be summed. Default: 'none'
    Shape:
        - Input: :math:`(N, P_1, D_1)`, :math:`(N, P_2, D_2)`
        - Output: :math:`(N)` or :math:`()`, depending on `reduction`
