ROMS-IMLE: A Minimalist Approach to Competitive Single-Step Generative Modelling
arXiv:2607. 19332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching.
arXiv:2606. 17465v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Perron--Frobenius Operator Matching (PFOM), a generative framework that matches density evolution via the integral PF operator, subsuming flow, diffusion, and jump models.
arXiv:2607. 19332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching.
arXiv:2605. 29920v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce Midpoint Generative Models (MGM), a principled framework for training one-step generative models.
arXiv:2606. 08953v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern generative models often define an entire probability path from a simple prior to the data law, rather than only an endpoint map.
Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching. Along the way, the underlying techniques have become more complicated and various beliefs about what drives strong empirical performance have taken hold.
arXiv:2608. 03117v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The performance of generative diffusion models is determined by the choice of the reference diffusion process connecting the empirical and prior distributions.
arXiv:2607. 21427v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Discrete flow matching provides a flexible framework for generative modeling on discrete structures.
arXiv:2606. 29724v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Normalizing flows are powerful generative models that learn an invertible mapping between complex data distributions and simple latent distributions, typically a standard normal density.
arXiv:2608. 12438v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We formulate generative modeling as a path integral in which flow-based, diffusion-based, variational, and adversarial models arise as different evaluation principles for a single master action.
arXiv:2605. 00941v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Flow matching has become a leading framework for generative modeling, but quantifying the uncertainty of its samples remains an open problem.
Normalizing flows are powerful generative models that learn an invertible mapping between complex data distributions and simple latent distributions, typically a standard normal density. However, this choice of latent density can impose unnecessary complexity on the learned flow transformation due to the topological mismatch between the latent and data densities, leading to slower training and suboptimal performance.
arXiv:2608. 06107v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Machine learning offers a promising avenue to accelerate physical simulations by replacing computationally expensive traditional Partial Differential Equation (PDE) solvers with fast, differentiable surrogate models.
arXiv:2607. 05252v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Simulation-Based Inference (SBI) is critical for scientific discovery, with generative models offering a promising path toward efficient inference.
