Coupled Guidance for Flow Matching

Read the original on Hugging Face Trending Papers →

The paper introduces Coupled Guidance, a flow‑matching‑specific guidance mechanism that addresses instability issues arising from directly adapting diffusion guidance methods. By leveraging the coupling structure inherent to flow‑matching training, the authors provide a theoretical analysis showing that naive diffusion guidance breaks the training distribution and weakens control. Extensive experiments on robotic collision avoidance, dexterous manipulation, and image generation tasks demonstrate that Coupled Guidance improves sample quality and guidance stability without extra computational overhead.

AegisFlow: Training-Free Non-Myopic Path-Safe Guided Flow Matching

AegisFlow is a training‑free framework that guides generative models, such as diffusion and flow matching, along safe paths by formulating the problem as a global optimal control task. It incorporates a time‑varying barrier function into the cost functional, enabling non‑myopic enforcement of constraints throughout the entire generative trajectory. Experiments show that AegisFlow outperforms existing methods in text‑guided image manipulation and robotic planning, achieving a better balance between target alignment and constraint satisfaction.

ManiCM: Real-time 3D Diffusion Policy via Consistency Model for Robotic Manipulation

ManiCM is a real‑time 3D diffusion policy for robotic manipulation that uses a consistency constraint to enable one‑step inference. The model conditions on point‑cloud input and directly predicts robot actions through a consistency distillation technique, avoiding the need to predict noise. Evaluated on 31 tasks from Adroit and Metaworld, ManiCM achieves an average ten‑fold speedup over state‑of‑the‑art methods while maintaining competitive success rates.
