Time series generation with spectrally aligned latent flow matching

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

The paper introduces a spectrally-aligned latent-flow model for time‑series generation that trains the latent space to preserve dynamical properties relevant to synthetic data quality. By incorporating fine‑tuning losses based on Fourier, wavelet, and signature transforms, the method mitigates spectral mismatches caused by latent compression and ensures alignment with true signals in terms of smoothness and targeted spectral content. Experiments on real‑world long‑range univariate and multivariate benchmarks show that the aligned model outperforms a base latent‑flow model and state‑of‑the‑art approaches in signal realism, computational efficiency, and local structure alignment.

Wavelet Flow Matching for Time Series

The paper introduces Wavelet Flow Matching, a method for generating multivariate time series by applying flow matching to multilevel discrete wavelet coefficients. By working in the wavelet domain, the model captures coarse-to-fine temporal structure implicitly and uses a channel-token transformer to model cross-channel dependencies. Experiments on seven benchmark datasets and four sequence lengths show that the approach matches or surpasses existing methods, especially in Context-FID and discriminative score metrics.

On the Diffusibility of High-Dimensional Latents

The paper investigates how fine‑tuning pretrained visual encoders for faithful image reconstruction affects diffusion models that operate in the resulting latent space. It finds that such fine‑tuning reduces the effective dimensionality of the latent representation, causing standard velocity‑prediction flow‑matching to fit noise outside the low‑dimensional signal manifold and making optimization inefficient. Consequently, the authors propose using a clean‑data ($oldsymbol{x}_{0}$) parameterization, which focuses learning on the signal manifold and consistently improves text‑to‑image generation across multiple strong‑reconstruction encoders.
