We introduce the notion of a C^k -diffeological statistical model, which allows us to apply the theory of diffeological spaces to (possibly singular) statistical models. In particular, we introduce a class of almost 2-integrable C^k -diffeological statistical models that encompasses all known statistical models for which the Fisher metric is defined. This class contains a statistical model which does not appear in the Ay–Jost–Lê–Schwachhöfer theory of parametrized measure models. Then, we show that, for any positive integer k , the class of almost 2-integrable C^k -diffeological statistical models is preserved under probabilistic mappings. Furthermore, the monotonicity Theorem for the Fisher metric also holds for this class. As a consequence, the Fisher metric on an almost 2-integrable C^k -diffeological statistical model P⊂P(X) is preserved under any probabilistic mapping T:X⇝Y that is sufficient w.r.t. P. Finally, we extend the Cramér–Rao inequality to the class of 2-integrable C^k -diffeological statistical models.
