In rectified-flow-based generative models, the neural network can be trained to predict two different targets, such as the instantaneous velocity or the data endpoint, to perform denoising. Although prior work shows that these parameterizations lead to different empirical behaviors, the mechanisms underlying their respective advantages remain to be underexplored, and how to combine them effectively is still unclear.

arXiv:2605. 08832v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural surrogate models for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) are typically trained as forward operators that map explicit problem specifications, such as geometry and boundary conditions, to solution fields.

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.

arXiv:2605. 00941v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Flow matching has become a leading framework for generative modeling, but quantifying the uncertainty of its samples remains an open problem.

High-fidelity image generation faces a trade-off between speed and quality. Diffusion models produce strong visuals but require costly iterative sampling.
Continuous-time generative frameworks construct probability paths between base and target domains by optimizing time-dependent velocity fields. While theoretical targets favor straight trajectories, empirical networks develop complex path deformations.
arXiv:2606. 10450v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: DiffC provides a principled way to reuse pre-trained diffusion models for lossy compression, but its encoding and decoding procedures remain slow because they require many discretized forward and reverse steps.
