Tail Annealing for Heavy-Tailed Flow Matching

Standard generative models struggle with heavy-tailed data: Lipschitz architectures cannot produce power-law tails from Gaussian noise, and interpolating between heavy-tailed data and Gaussians is ill-posed. We propose a simple fix: apply the soft-log transform $\phi(x) = \mathrm{sign}(x) \cdot \log…
