Resumen:
We show, that the Hutchinson distance between discrete probability measures on spaces of finite dimension can be computed as a network flow problem, and then solved in polynomial time by efficient combinatorial mehtods. In the one dimensional case, a linear time method had been obtained earlier by Brandt et. al in [12]. This new setting allows to compute this metric for higher dimensions. We also show that the one dimensional formula hs its counterpart in the continuous case.
