We also introduce two coupling approaches advocated this summer to improve FM training: using either very large sharp Sinkhorn couplings (arxiv.org/abs/2506.05526) or, even better, semidiscrete couplings (arxiv.org/abs/2509.25519), as proposed with Alireza Mousavi-Hosseini and

On Fitting Flow Models with Large Sinkhorn Couplings
Flow models transform data gradually from one modality (e.g. noise) onto another (e.g. images). Such models are parameterized by a time-dependent velocity field, trained to fit segments connecting pai...

We have been working with Michal Klein on pushing a module to train *flow matching* models using JAX. This is shipped as part of our new release of the OTT-JAX toolbox (github.com/ott-jax/ott)

The tutorial to do so is here: ott-jax.readthedocs.io/tutorials/ne...

Wow! Finally OT done on the entire training set to train a diffusion model!
Our two phenomenal interns, Alireza Mousavi-Hosseini and Stephen Zhang @syz.bsky.social have been cooking some really cool work with Michal Klein and me over the summer.

Relying on optimal transport couplings (to pick noise and data pairs) should, in principle, be helpful to guide flow matching
