We propose unbalanced versions of the quantum mechanical version of optimal mass transport that is based on the Lindblad equation describing open quantum systems. One of them is a natural interpolation framework between matrices and matrix-valued measures via a quantum mechanical formulation of Fisher-Rao information and the matricial Wasserstein distance, and the second is an interpolation between Wasserstein distance and Frobenius norm. We also give analogous results for the matrix-valued density measures, i.e., we add a spatial dependency on the density matrices. This might extend the applications of the framework to interpolating matrix-valued densities/images with unequal masses.
