The paper introduces the Ensemble-conditioned Inverse Problem (EIP), a multivariate statistical framework for inferring an ensemble that follows the pushforward of a prior through a forward process. It applies to fields such as high‑energy physics, full waveform inversion, and inverse imaging, and proposes non‑iterative inference‑time methods using ensemble inverse generative models that avoid explicit forward model use during inference. The authors demonstrate the approach on synthetic and real datasets and provide code for replication.
arXiv:2607. 06252v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Many problems in science and engineering are difficult to model accurately, either due to unknown physical mechanisms, poorly quantified measurement uncertainty, or prohibitive computational costs of high-fidelity simulations.
PosteriorBench is a new benchmark that evaluates how well generative inverse solvers recover full posterior distributions rather than just a single reconstruction. It tests four physics-based inverse problems—Darcy flow inversion, Poisson source recovery, carbon capture and storage, and light transport material inference—using high-fidelity reference posteriors generated by rejection sampling and MCMC. The benchmark employs five metrics (posterior-mean error, posterior-standard-deviation error, maximum mean discrepancy, sliced Wasserstein distance, and radially averaged power-spectrum error) to assess pointwise accuracy, uncertainty, distributional alignment, and global frequency fidelity, revealing significant distribution-matching gaps in current solvers and highlighting the importance of neural operators, guidance weights, and generation noise for posterior-variance calibration.
