arXiv:2606. 01086v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flow and diffusion models generate high-quality samples in many modalities; however, many network evaluations are required during inference due to numerical integration of an underlying differential equation.

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.

Stochastic-process models are, as a rule, far easier to simulate than to condition. Non-linear observations, non-Gaussian likelihoods, black-box information, and global constraints all induce intractable conditional laws, requiring bespoke, model-specific constructions.
arXiv:2606. 31576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The use of ordinary and stochastic differential equations has led to substantial progress in generative machine learning with applications to, for example, image, video and biomolecule generation.

Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods are a natural tool for post-hoc conditioning of pretrained generative models, but in many applications the mutation kernels used by the particle system are biased approximations of an ideal Feynman--Kac flow. This paper develops a non-asymptotic error analysis for such SMC samplers.

arXiv:2512. 19196v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Solving high-dimensional Fokker-Planck (FP) equations remains a challenging problem in computational physics and stochastic dynamics, due to the curse of dimensionality, unbounded domains, and complex probability landscapes.
