The paper introduces Flow Divergence Sampler (FDS), a training‑free method that refines intermediate states in flow‑matching models by using the divergence of the marginal velocity field to detect and correct misguidance toward low‑density regions. FDS operates during inference, requires no additional training, and can be applied as a plug‑and‑play module with standard solvers and existing flow backbones. Experiments show that FDS consistently improves fidelity in tasks such as text‑to‑image synthesis and inverse problems.

CF‑VLA introduces a two‑stage coarse‑to‑fine approach for vision‑language‑action policies, replacing multi‑step sampling with a coarse initialization that constructs an action‑aware starting point and a single‑step refinement that corrects residual errors. The coarse stage learns a conditional posterior over endpoint velocity to transform Gaussian noise into a structured initialization, while the fine stage performs a fixed‑time refinement. Experiments on CALVIN and LIBERO demonstrate that CF‑VLA achieves a strong efficiency‑performance trade‑off, reducing action sampling latency by 75.4 % and achieving an 83.0 % real‑robot success rate, outperforming existing NFE=2 methods and matching or surpassing NFE=10 baselines.

arXiv:2602. 20360v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Flow-based generative methods offer a simple and effective framework for high-fidelity generation, yet pretrained flow models are rarely used in their vanilla conditional form: in image generation, samples without guidance often appear diffuse and lack fine-grained detail.
