Analytic Bridge Diffusions for Controlled Path Generation

arXiv:2605. 02961v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Most modern bridge-diffusion methods achieve finite-time transport by specifying an interpolation, Schrodinger-bridge, or stochastic-control objective and then learning the associated score or drift field with a neural network.

Twisted Schr\"odinger Bridge Matching

arXiv:2607. 16987v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Over the past few years, diffusion-based Schr\"odinger bridge models have been proposed to approximate optimal transport dynamics between two prescribed boundary distributions, with successful applications to generative modeling.

Adjoint Matching through the Lens of the Stochastic Maximum Principle in Optimal Control

arXiv:2604. 08580v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reward fine-tuning of diffusion and flow models and sampling from tilted or Boltzmann distributions can both be formulated as stochastic optimal control (SOC) problems, where learning an optimal generative dynamics corresponds to optimizing a control under SDE constraints.

RAPiD: Reward-Guided Consistency Distillation of Diffusion Planners for Real-Time Autonomous Driving

arXiv:2602. 07339v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion-based trajectory planners can model multi-modal driving behavior, but their iterative denoising process introduces a latency bottleneck for real-time closed-loop deployment.
