  • In Wasserstein geometry, one-dimensional location-scale models are flat both intrinsically and extrinsically-that is, they are curvature-free as well as totally geodesic in the space of probability distributions. In this study, we introduce a class of one-dimensional statistical models, termed the location-scale-shape model, which generalizes several distributions used in extreme-value theory. This model has a shape parameter that specifies the tail heaviness. We investigate the Wasserstein geometry of the location-scale-shape model and show that it is intrinsically flat but extrinsically curved.
