The authors' main claim A potential function is shown to link probability density functions to their transformation, and to generalize the cumulative.
The compiled record
The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence
A theoretical framework is developed to describe the transformation that distributes probability density functions uniformly over space. In one dimension, the cumulative distribution can be used, but does not generalize to higher dimensions, or non-separable distributions. A potential function is shown to link probability density functions to their transformation, and to generalize the cumulative. A numerical method is developed to compute the potential, and examples are shown in two dimensions.

Original abstract
A theoretical framework is developed to describe the transformation that distributes probability density functions uniformly over space. In one dimension, the cumulative distribution can be used, but does not generalize to higher dimensions, or non-separable distributions. A potential function is shown to link probability density functions to their transformation, and to generalize the cumulative. A numerical method is developed to compute the potential, and examples are shown in two dimensions.
