Key points

  • The paper establishes theory showing that a one-step transport map satisfies the conservation equation b·∇T=0, and builds a method that trains directly by minimizing its residual without teacher distillation.
  • Iteratively applying the partially learned map converges to a fixed point (the completed sentence), so accuracy can be raised while reducing the number of computation steps.
  • The method supports self-correcting generation that uses extra computation as a refinement step via partial-context interpolation.
  • On language modeling (OpenWebText generation PPL) and reasoning tasks, it outperformed diffusion and flow-map baselines such as FMLM with equal or fewer function evaluations.
