Next Monday in the reading group, we discuss the recent developments around discrete flow matching and discrete diffusion. Our expert of choice will be Andrew Campbell :) Related paper: "Discrete Flow Matching" arxiv.org/abs/2407.15595portal.valencelabs.com/logg

Discrete Flow Matching

Despite Flow Matching and diffusion models having emerged as powerful generative paradigms for continuous variables such as images and videos, their application to high-dimensional discrete data,...
