arXiv:2606. 01086v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flow and diffusion models generate high-quality samples in many modalities; however, many network evaluations are required during inference due to numerical integration of an underlying differential equation.
arXiv:2607. 00535v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Few-step flow-map generators, such as consistency models and MeanFlow, accelerate sampling by directly learning long-range transport maps between noise and data.
The paper presents an amortized neural sampler that merges operator learning with flow-based methods to efficiently sample from invariant measures of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). By mapping SDE coefficient functions to pushforwards from a reference measure, the approach shifts the sampling cost to an initial training phase, after which new SDE instances can be sampled with a single encoder pass and a few ODE solver steps, independent of mixing time. The framework incorporates Lagrangian trajectory sensors and cross attention to handle high-dimensional problems, and the authors provide theoretical guarantees of expressivity and resolution invariance, demonstrating competitive accuracy and significant speedups over MCMC in 1D, 2D, and 64D SDE families.
arXiv:2608. 05600v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flow-based generative models are typically sampled by solving a deterministic ordinary differential equation (ODE), whereas online reinforcement learning requires stochastic rollouts for policy exploration and optimization.
The paper introduces block‑triangular joint drifting, a method that applies a projected drift field to the joint distribution of consecutive states, enabling one‑step generative surrogate models for stochastic transition dynamics. This architecture preserves the current‑state marginal while directly sampling the conditional distribution of next states, allowing stochastic trajectories to be generated with a single model evaluation per time step. Experiments show that the approach achieves accurate marginal and trajectory‑dependent statistics with favorable accuracy‑cost tradeoffs compared to deterministic, diffusion, flow, and distillation‑based generative surrogates.
Flow-based generative models are typically sampled by solving a deterministic ordinary differential equation (ODE), whereas online reinforcement learning requires stochastic rollouts for policy exploration and optimization. Existing GRPO methods for flow models therefore replace the inference-time ODE with a stochastic differential equation (SDE) during training.
