On the Inverse Flow Matching Problem in the One-Dimensional and Gaussian Cases

Machine Learning 2025-12-30 v1

Abstract

This paper studies the inverse problem of flow matching (FM) between distributions with finite exponential moment, a problem motivated by modern generative AI applications such as the distillation of flow matching models. Uniqueness of the solution is established in two cases - the one-dimensional setting and the Gaussian case. The general multidimensional problem remains open for future studies.
