Resumen:
We study the problem of calculating the Hutchinson distance between two probability measures on the line, when the translation of one of them is allowed. We show that there exists a translation that minimizes the distance between the measures, we characterize the set of minimal translations as medians of a certain distribution and we show that in the discrete case there exists a linear time algorithm to solve this problem.
