Accelerating Redshift-Conditioned Galaxy Image Synthesis with One-step Generative Modeling

Understanding galaxy morphology evolution across cosmic time requires models that can generate realistic galaxy populations conditioned on redshift. In this work, we study efficient redshift-conditioned generative modeling for astrophysical image synthesis using diffusion models and pixel-MeanFlow. We first review the connections between score-based diffusion models, Flow Matching, one-step generative models, and modern diffusion samplers. We then evaluate DDPM, DDIM, DEIS-AB2, DPM++2M, and one-step pixel-MeanFlow on the GalaxiesML-64 dataset using morphology-based metrics, including ellipticity, semi-major axis, Sérsic index, and isophotal area. Our results show a clear accuracy-efficiency trade-off: standard DDPM sampling achieves the best distributional fidelity but requires high computational cost, while second-order samplers substantially improve efficiency over DDIM. Pixel-MeanFlow enables single-step generation and achieves competitive performance on several morphology statistics, though it remains weaker than many-step DDPM for fine-grained structure. Our results demonstrate that one-step generative models can recover key galaxy morphology statistics at orders-of-magnitude lower computational cost, opening a path toward efficient conditional simulators for large cosmological surveys and simulation-based scientific inference.

Physical Fidelity Reconstruction via Improved Consistency-Distilled Flow Matching for Dynamical Systems

Reconstructing high-fidelity flow fields from low-fidelity observations is a central problem in scientific machine learning, yet recent diffusion and flow-matching models typically rely on iterative sampling, making them costly for latency-sensitive workflows such as ensemble forecasting, real-time visualization, and simulation-in-the-loop inference. We study whether a high-fidelity flow-matching generative model can be compressed into a compact one-step model for fast scientific flow reconstruction. Our approach distills an optimal-transport flow-matching teacher into a one-step consistency model. Low-fidelity observations are incorporated at inference by initializing the generative trajectory from a noised observation along the transport path, allowing an unconditional high-fidelity flow model to perform conditional reconstruction without retraining the teacher. We evaluate this distillation strategy on three fluid benchmarks, Smoke Buoyancy, Turbulent Channel Flow, and Kolmogorov Flow, using coarse-to-fine reconstruction as a controlled testbed at field sizes up to $256 \times 256$. Across these settings, the distilled student retains similar performance of the teacher's model on spectrum metrics, while using roughly half as many parameters and achieving a $12\times$ inference speedup over the flow-matching teacher. Under the same training budget, the distilled student also outperforms a one-step consistency model trained directly from scratch by $23.1\%$ in SSIM, showing that teacher distillation improves training efficiency rather than merely accelerating sampling. These results suggest a promising route for turning future high-capacity scientific generative models into compact reconstruction models that are faster to train, cheaper to run, and easier to deploy.

Towards Scalable One-Step Generative Modeling for Autoregressive Dynamical System Forecasting

Fast surrogate modeling for high-dimensional physical dynamics requires more than low short-term error: useful models must roll out efficiently while preserving the statistical structure of long trajectories. Neural operators provide inexpensive autoregressive forecasts but can drift in turbulent regimes, whereas rolling diffusion and latent generative surrogates can represent stochastic transitions at the cost of multi-step denoising, noise-schedule design, or auxiliary compression models. We propose MeanFlow Long-term Invariant Spatiotemporal Consistency Autoregressive Models (MeLISA), a latent-free autoregressive generative surrogate built on pixel-space MeanFlow. MeLISA defines a blockwise stochastic transition kernel that generates each forecast block with a single model evaluation, avoiding latent encoders and iterative diffusion solvers at inference time. To stabilize long-horizon rollouts, MeLISA combines a Window-Consistency MeanFlow objective that learns conditional spatiotemporal generation from partially observed temporal windows with a Time Increment Consistency loss that constrains multi-lag finite increments and targets temporal-correlation structure. We evaluate MeLISA with compact UNet and scalable DiT backbones on two high-resolution benchmarks, extended 2D Kolmogorov flow at $256 \times 256$ and turbulent channel-flow slice at $192 \times 192$. MeLISA outperforms neural-operator baselines on short-term forecasting accuracy and long-horizon statistical metrics, including energy spectra, turbulent kinetic energy, and mixing-rate-related dynamics, while achieving inference speeds comparable to, and in some cases faster than, neural operators. Compact 3.7-5.7M-parameter variants already deliver strong parameter efficiency, and DiT variants provide a scalable path up to 150M parameters. Overall, MeLISA benefits both rollout efficiency and long-horizon statistical accuracy.
