Description:

def solve_dual_entropic(a, b, M, reg, batch_size, numItermax=10000, lr=1,
                        log=False):
    '''
    Compute the transportation matrix to solve the regularized discrete measures
        optimal transport dual problem

    The function solves the following optimization problem:

    .. math::
        \gamma = arg\min_\gamma <\gamma,M>_F + reg\cdot\Omega(\gamma)

        s.t. \gamma 1 = a

             \gamma^T 1= b

             \gamma \geq 0

    Where :

    - M is the (ns,nt) metric cost matrix
    - :math:`\Omega` is the entropic regularization term :math:`\Omega(\gamma)=\sum_{i,j} \gamma_{i,j}\log(\gamma_{i,j})`
    - a and b are source and target weights (sum to 1)

    Parameters
    ----------

    a : np.ndarray(ns,)
        source measure
    b : np.ndarray(nt,)
        target measure
    M : np.ndarray(ns, nt)
        cost matrix
    reg : float number
        Regularization term > 0
    batch_size : int number
        size of the batch
    numItermax : int number
        number of iteration
    lr : float number
        learning rate
    log : bool, optional
        record log if True

    Returns
    -------

    pi : np.ndarray(ns, nt)
        transportation matrix
    log : dict
        log dictionary return only if log==True in parameters

    Examples
    --------

    >>> n_source = 7
    >>> n_target = 4
    >>> reg = 1
    >>> numItermax = 20000
    >>> lr = 0.1
    >>> batch_size = 3
    >>> log = True
    >>> a = ot.utils.unif(n_source)
    >>> b = ot.utils.unif(n_target)
    >>> rng = np.random.RandomState(0)
    >>> X_source = rng.randn(n_source, 2)
    >>> Y_target = rng.randn(n_target, 2)
    >>> M = ot.dist(X_source, Y_target)
    >>> sgd_dual_pi, log = stochastic.solve_dual_entropic(a, b, M, reg,
                                                            batch_size,
                                                            numItermax, lr, log)
    >>> print(log['alpha'], log['beta'])
    >>> print(sgd_dual_pi)
