A Gibbs posterior sampler for inverse problem based on prior diffusion model

arXiv:2602. 11059v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper addresses the issue of inversion in cases where (1) the observation system is modeled by a linear transformation and additive error, (2) the problem is ill-posed and regularization relies on a Bayesian strategy, (3)~the prior is modeled by a diffusion process adjusted on an available large set of examples.

Learning Informative Prior with Infinite-Dimensional Continuous Normalizing Flow for Bayesian Inverse Problem

The paper introduces a continuous normalizing flow model for infinite-dimensional Bayesian inference in inverse problems governed by partial differential equations. By defining a neural ordinary differential equation in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, a simple reference measure is transformed into a complex prior that captures prior information. The authors establish a theoretical framework for well-posedness, present training methods for two data settings, and provide sampling algorithms, applying the approach to smooth, scattering, and heat conduction inverse problems with supporting numerical experiments.

FlowSGS: Improving Flow Matching Priors for Inverse Imaging with Stochastic Interpolants

FlowSGS introduces a flow-based posterior sampling method that combines Split Gibbs Sampling (SGS) with Langevin dynamics for the likelihood step and Stochastic Interpolants (SI) for the prior step. By integrating a pretrained flow model into the prior step via SI's reverse-time SDE and a novel timestep correction, FlowSGS reduces the number of network evaluations compared to plug‑and‑play diffusion samplers. Experiments demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art performance on various inverse problems, including the first flow‑based solution to a nonlinear inverse problem (Fourier phase retrieval).

Energy-based Transport for Amortized Bayesian Inference

arXiv:2605. 15407v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We consider amortized Bayesian inference for nonlinear inverse problems using only samples from the joint distribution of parameters and observations, including problems with unknown functions in a Banach space.
