Particle GFlowNets: Rethinking Generative Marginalization Models

The paper introduces Particle GFlowNets, showing that Generative Marginalization Models (MaMs) are equivalent to Generative Flow Networks. It extends MaMs to non‑autoregressive sampling and proposes an automatic full‑state rejuvenation criterion based on the Gelman‑Rubin statistic to accelerate learning. Experiments demonstrate significant training speedups in large combinatorial spaces.

FrOGS: Discrete Neural Sampler for Independent Alloy Configurations Across Chemical Conditions

FrOGS is a hybrid discrete neural sampler that couples an autoregressive model with a continuous-time Markov chain, trained under a single shared loss to sample alloy configurations across many chemical conditions. It produces independent, unbiased configurations, estimates the partition function, and yields consistent thermodynamic observables on a common absolute free‑energy scale. The method matches exact results for the 2D Ising model and reproduces reference phase diagrams for AgPd and CuAu, avoiding mode collapse and correctly recovering the stability range of the CuAu$_3$ phase.

Equilibrium Training of Energy-Based Models with Parallel Trajectory Tempering

Energy-Based Models (EBMs) provide an interpretable framework for generative modeling of scientific data, but poor Markov Chain Monte Carlo mixing often limits their reliability. We introduce a training algorithm based on Parallel Trajectory Tempering (PTT), which exploits the continuity of the optimization path to maintain equilibrium sampling throughout learning.
