ParetoTransport: Generative Optimization by Mass Transport Toward The Pareto Front

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

ParetoTransport is a training‑free guidance method for pre‑trained flow‑matching models that explicitly refines a population‑level distribution in objective space. It iteratively transports the empirical offline distribution toward the Pareto front using Wasserstein matching to intermediate proxy distributions, thereby controlling distributional displacement and mass allocation along the front. The authors prove a convergence result and show state‑of‑the‑art performance on standard offline multi‑objective optimization benchmarks, evaluating beyond hypervolume to generational distance, inverted generational distance, and Wasserstein distance.

Fenchel Tilting: Weighted Correction for Efficient Finetuning of Generative Models

Fenchel Tilt Flow Control (FTFC) is a new method for fine‑tuning pretrained generative models to arbitrary preference functions. It decouples utility optimization from model fitting by first learning reward and density‑ratio weights on pretrained samples, then freezing these weights to adjust a diffusion or flow model in a single importance‑weighted stage. The approach supports general f‑divergence penalties, achieves exact duality for concave utilities, and demonstrates up to 20× efficiency gains while outperforming baselines on image and molecule generation tasks.

Trajectory-Aware Flow Matching for Topology Optimisation

arXiv:2607. 14652v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Topology optimisation (TO) often requires repeated finite element analysis and sensitivity-based material updates, which can be costly when multiple candidate designs are needed under varying physical and design conditions.
