Measurement Geometry and Design for Trustworthy Generative Inverse Problems

arXiv:2606. 02309v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models are increasingly used as priors for inverse problems, but their ability to produce realistic images creates a basic trust problem: a plausible reconstruction may be supported by the measurements, or it may be filled in by the prior along unobserved directions.

The Right Measure for Physics-Constrained Generation: A Co-Area Correction for Posterior-Consistent PDE Inverse Problems

Generative models -- diffusion and flow matching -- are increasingly used to solve partial differential equation (PDE) inverse problems, enforcing the governing physics as a \emph{hard constraint} (via projection or guidance) and reporting the resulting samples as a Bayesian posterior with calibrated uncertainty. We show that this widely adopted recipe samples the wrong distribution.

Generative Translation Priors: Bayesian Imaging with Cross-Modality Image Translation

Generative Translation Priors (GTP) is a Bayesian framework that repurposes diffusion-based image-to-image translation models as cross-modality priors for ill‑posed imaging inverse problems. It incorporates target‑domain measurements via likelihood guidance, steering the translation toward the desired posterior distribution. The authors analyze the resulting posterior dynamics, identify an intrinsic bias from likelihood guidance, and propose a ground‑truth‑free metric to estimate this bias, leading to two discretized GTP algorithms that demonstrate high‑fidelity reconstruction in CT and PET imaging using complementary side information.
