arXiv:2606. 04804v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: 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.

arXiv:2603. 00393v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inverse problems constrained by partial differential equations are often ill-conditioned due to noisy, incomplete data or inherent non-uniqueness.

FB‑GDM is a fully‑Bayesian guided diffusion method that eliminates the need for task‑specific hyperparameter tuning in linear inverse problems. It derives a closed‑form conditional score from a Gaussian approximation of ΦGDM, treating two precision parameters as latent variables inferred via variational inference at each reverse step. Experiments on CelebA‑HQ show that FB‑GDM outperforms ΦGDM at its nominal setting, matches a ground‑truth‑calibrated oracle within 0.1 dB, and remains robust to changes in the forward operator, noise level, or image distribution without hallucinations.

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.

PosteriorBench is a new benchmark that evaluates how well generative inverse solvers recover full posterior distributions rather than just a single reconstruction. It tests four physics-based inverse problems—Darcy flow inversion, Poisson source recovery, carbon capture and storage, and light transport material inference—using high-fidelity reference posteriors generated by rejection sampling and MCMC. The benchmark employs five metrics (posterior-mean error, posterior-standard-deviation error, maximum mean discrepancy, sliced Wasserstein distance, and radially averaged power-spectrum error) to assess pointwise accuracy, uncertainty, distributional alignment, and global frequency fidelity, revealing significant distribution-matching gaps in current solvers and highlighting the importance of neural operators, guidance weights, and generation noise for posterior-variance calibration.

arXiv:2606. 16923v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Simulation-based inference (SBI) of latent parameters is often hindered by simulator misspecification, the mismatch between simulated and real-world observations caused by inherent modeling simplifications.
