LC-GRPO framework improves generative model training with Langevin correction

Researchers have introduced LC-GRPO, a novel framework for flow-based GRPO that incorporates Langevin correction to bridge the gap between training and inference in generative models. This method addresses the discrepancy that arises when using stochastic differential equations (SDEs) for training and deterministic ordinary differential equations (ODEs) for inference, which can lead to blurry samples and reduced performance. By applying a Langevin correction after an ODE Euler step, LC-GRPO theoretically reduces Wasserstein error and improves sample accuracy compared to standard SDE discretizations. Experiments on models like SD3.5-Medium, FLUX.1-Dev, and HunyuanVideo show consistent improvements in reward optimization for text-to-image and text-to-video generation while maintaining generation quality.
