The paper introduces a Focal Log-Frequency Loss (f-loss) to counteract the spectral imbalance in pixel-space flow matching, where low frequencies dominate training. By balancing learning signals across frequencies and combining early frequency-domain supervision with later pixel-space refinement, the method accelerates convergence by up to 40% and improves FID and perceptual fidelity across multiple model scales. It requires no architectural changes and can replace existing flow matching losses as a drop‑in solution.

The paper introduces continuous adversarial flow models, a continuous-time flow framework trained with an adversarial objective that replaces the fixed mean-squared-error criterion of flow matching. By incorporating a learned discriminator, the method guides training toward a different generalized distribution, yielding samples more closely aligned with the target data distribution. Applied as a post‑training step, it markedly improves ImageNet 256px generation metrics—reducing the guidance‑free FID of latent‑space SiT from 8.26 to 3.63 and of pixel‑space JiT from 7.17 to 3.57—and also enhances guided generation and text‑to‑image benchmarks.

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.
