ROMS-IMLE: A Minimalist Approach to Competitive Single-Step Generative Modelling
Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching. Along the way, the underlying techniques have become more complicated and various beliefs about what drives strong empirical performance have taken hold. Due to the success of diffusion models and flow matching, one of the more common beliefs is the importance of transform
