RW-Flow: One-Step Generation on Compact Manifolds via Wasserstein Gradient Flows

Excerpt

arXiv:2609.39271v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Manifold-valued data, and consequently the distributions they induce, are prevalent across many domains, ranging from the locations of geospatial events, such as earthquakes, to biomolecular torsion angles that encode information about three-dimensional structure. While diffusion and flow-based generative models have been successfully extended to compact manifolds, sampling typically requires tens or hundreds of sequential network evaluations. We i
