Corrected Samplers for Discrete Flow Models

ICML 2026poster

Discrete flow models (DFMs) have been proposed to learn the data distribution on finite state space, offering a flexible framework as an alternative to discrete diffusion models. A line of recent work has studied samplers for discrete diffusion models, such as tau-leaping and Euler solver. However, …

Discrete Guidance Matching: Exact Guidance for Discrete Flow Matching

ICLR 2026poster

Guidance provides a simple and effective framework for posterior sampling by steering the generation process towards the desired distribution. When modeling discrete data, existing approaches mostly focus on guidance with the first-order Taylor approximation to improve the sampling efficiency. Howev…

Error Analysis of Discrete Flow with Generator Matching

ICML 2026poster

Discrete flow models offer a powerful framework for learning distributions over discrete state spaces and have demonstrated superior performance compared to the discrete diffusion models. However, their convergence properties and error analysis remain largely unexplored. In this work, we develop a u…

Improving Adversarial Robustness Through the Contrastive-Guided Diffusion Process

ICML 2023poster

Synthetic data generation has become an emerging tool to help improve the adversarial robustness in classification tasks, since robust learning requires a significantly larger amount of training samples compared with standard classification. Among various deep generative models, the diffusion model…

Generalizing to Unseen Domains: A Survey on Domain Generalization

IJCAI 2021poster

Domain generalization (DG), i.e., out-of-distribution generalization, has attracted increased interests in recent years. Domain generalization deals with a challenging setting where one or several different but related domain(s) are given, and the goal is to learn a model that can generalize to an u…
