Researchers have developed a diagnostic theory and benchmark to understand when local score models can successfully extrapolate across different system sizes in scientific generative modeling. They found that architectural locality alone is insufficient for stable size extrapolation; instead, it depends on the quasi-locality of the Gaussian-smoothed score. The study introduces Finite-Depth Local Flow (FDLF), a benchmark that allows for precise evaluation of these mechanisms and empirically validates the relationship between spatial mixing, score quasi-locality, and model receptive fields.
