(HB-ARFM) History-Bootstrapped Flow Matching for Inverse Boiling Reconstruction

arXiv:2606.00349v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reconstructing spatiotemporal fields from partial observations is fundamental to scientific inference, from inferring atmospheric states from satellite data to recovering fluid states from imaging. When observations are incomplete, the inverse problem is fundamentally ill-posed: even when the underlying PDE dynamics are Markovian in the full state, partial observation operators induce a non-Markovian posterior that cannot be resolved from a single timestep. We propose a history-bootstrapped autoregressive flow matching (HB-ARFM) for spatiotempora

Why this matters
