arXiv:2509.21925v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper investigates the theoretical behavior of generative models under finite training populations. Within the stochastic interpolation generative framework, we derive closed-form expressions for the optimal velocity field and score function when only a finite number of training samples are available. We demonstrate that, under some regularity conditions, the deterministic generative process exactly recovers the training samples, while the stochastic generative process manifests as training samples with added Gaussian noise.

This research provides theoretical grounding for generative model behavior, which is crucial as the field rapidly advances from empirical to more rigorous understanding.
Understanding the generation properties of stochastic interpolation under finite data is critical for developing more robust, efficient, and reliable AI models, especially when training data is limited.
This theoretical work provides a deeper understanding of how generative models behave with finite data, potentially guiding future model design and training strategies to overcome data scarcity challenges.

It provides a more formal understanding of how generative models reconstruct and extend training data.
This understanding could lead to more data-efficient generative models and reduce the need for massive datasets, lowering compute requirements.
Reduced data and compute requirements might democratize advanced AI development, shifting power dynamics in the AI landscape.
