Let $M$ be a compact connected Riemannian manifold possibly with a boundary, let $V\in C^2(M)$ such that $\mu(d x):=e^{V(x)}d x$ is a probability measure, and let $\{\lambda_i\}_{i\ge 1} $ be all non-trivial eigenvalues of $-L$ with Neumann…

Diffusion models and flow-based methods have shown impressive generative capability, especially for images, but their sampling is expensive because it requires many iterative updates. We introduce W-Flow, a framework for training a…
