Researchers have developed a novel Bi-Anchor Interpolation Solver (BA-solver) to accelerate generative modeling, specifically addressing the latency issues in Flow Matching (FM) models. The BA-solver utilizes a lightweight SideNet alongside a frozen backbone to learn future and historical velocities, enabling efficient approximation of intermediate velocities. This approach allows for high-precision generation with significantly fewer Neural Function Evaluations (NFEs) compared to traditional methods, achieving comparable quality to solvers requiring over 100 NFEs in as few as 10 NFEs.
