New SC-Flow method unifies generative model training for improved quality

Researchers have introduced Self-Consistent Flow (SC-Flow), a novel method that unifies two distinct parameterizations used in rectified-flow-based generative models. By analyzing how learning errors from endpoint prediction and velocity prediction affect generation performance, the team found that endpoint prediction stabilizes training while velocity prediction maintains stable sampling dynamics. SC-Flow uses a lightweight consistency loss to train a single network to predict both targets simultaneously, enhancing generation quality and stability with minimal computational overhead. AI

IMPACT SC-Flow offers a unified approach to generative model training, potentially improving generation quality and stability with minimal computational cost.

    Self-Consistent Flow: Unifying Velocity and Endpoint Prediction for Rectified Flow Models

    In rectified-flow-based generative models, the neural network can be trained to predict two different targets, such as the instantaneous velocity or the data endpoint, to perform denoising. Although prior work shows that these parameterizations lead to different empirical behavio…
