Scale-Adaptive Generative Flows for Multiscale Scientific Data

arXiv:2509.02971v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Flow-based generative models can face numerical challenges on scientific data with multiscale Fourier spectra, often producing large errors at fine scales. We approach this problem within the flow matching and stochastic interpolants framework, through the principled design of noise distributions and interpolation schedules. Working in function space ensures that the generative model remains well defined as the resolution is refined; the Lipschitz regularity of the drift is important to both this function-space well-posedness and the in
