Researchers have developed a new method for solving inverse problems in imaging using conditional flow matching. This approach explicitly enforces the forward model within the learned conditional velocity field, unlike previous methods that often concatenated measurement information or used separate data-consistency updates. The proposed technique parameterizes the conditional velocity field in terms of the posterior mean, which is shown to be the unique minimizer of a variational objective. This method achieves state-of-the-art PSNR with significantly fewer function evaluations and allows for test-time control over the distortion-perception trade-off without retraining. AI
