Stochastic Lifting for Generating Trajectories of Stochastic Physical Systems

arXiv:2605.29194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many stochastic physical systems evolve smoothly over time in the sense that the distribution of states changes regularly across time steps. The transition from current state to the next state can often be modeled as the combination of a smooth map and an explicit source of randomness. Stochastic Lifting exploits this structure by attaching an independent, high-dimensional random label to each state transition in the training data and fitting a transition map from the current state and label to the next state using a standard regression loss.
