SymDrift: One-Shot Generative Modeling under Symmetries
Quick summary
arXiv:2605.06140v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Generative modeling of physical systems, such as molecules, requires learning distributions that are invariant under global symmetries, such as rotations in three-dimensional space. Equivariant diffusion and flow matching models can incorporate such invariances effectively, even when trained on a non-invariant empirical distribution, but they typically rely on costly multi-step sampling. Recently, drifting models have emerged as an efficient alternative, enabling single-step generation and achieving state-of-the-art performance in gener
