Flow Matching for Count Data introduces count‑FM, a flow‑matching framework tailored to high‑dimensional count data such as single‑cell RNA sequencing and neural spike trains. The method models transitions with a continuous‑time birth‑death process that uses local unit jumps, enabling efficient, simulation‑free learning of conditional transition rates directly in count space. Experiments show that count‑FM variants achieve strong sample quality with fewer parameters and provide interpretable transport paths for tasks including unconditional generation, transport, and conditional generation on real biological datasets.
CRNDiff is a new count‑native diffusion framework that uses stochastic chemical reaction networks to model nonnegative integer data such as single‑cell RNA sequencing. It provides a closed‑form forward‑noising kernel, enabling efficient reverse sampling via forward‑filtering backward‑sampling and data‑driven selection of the terminal noising time. The method also introduces tilted Feynman–Kac steering to sample rare subpopulations without retraining, and demonstrates superior conditional fidelity and marker‑level preservation on human heart scRNA‑seq data.

arXiv:2606. 02133v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Non-monotonic sequence generation methods, such as masked diffusion models, provide a flexible alternative to left-to-right autoregressive modeling by allowing tokens to be generated in non-fixed and prescribed orders.
