Training-Free Refinement of Flow Matching with Divergence-based Sampling

Flow-based models learn a target distribution by modeling a marginal velocity field, defined as the average of sample-wise velocities connecting each sample from a simple prior to the target data. When sample-wise velocities conflict at the same intermediate state, however, this averaged velocity can misguide samples toward low-density regions, degrading generation quality. To address this issue, we propose the Flow Divergence Sampler (FDS), a training-free framework that refines intermediate states before each solver step. Our key finding reveals that the severity of this misguidance is quantified by the divergence of the marginal velocity field that is readily computable during inference with a well-optimized model. FDS exploits this signal to steer states toward less ambiguous regions. As a plug-and-play framework compatible with standard solvers and off-the-shelf flow backbones, FDS consistently improves fidelity across various generation tasks including text-to-image synthesis, and inverse problems.

FlowBind: Efficient Any-to-Any Generation with Bidirectional Flows

Any-to-any generation seeks to translate between arbitrary subsets of modalities, enabling flexible cross-modal synthesis. Despite recent success, existing flow-based approaches are challenged by their inefficiency, as they require large-scale datasets often with restrictive pairing constraints, incur high computational cost from modeling joint distribution, and rely on complex multi-stage training. We propose FlowBind, an efficient framework for any-to-any generation. Our approach is distinguished by its simplicity: it learns a shared latent space capturing cross-modal information, with modality-specific invertible flows bridging this latent to each modality. Both components are optimized jointly under a single flow-matching objective, and at inference the invertible flows act as encoders and decoders for direct translation across modalities. By factorizing interactions through the shared latent, FlowBind naturally leverages arbitrary subsets of modalities for training, and achieves competitive generation quality while substantially reducing data requirements and computational cost. Experiments on text, image, and audio demonstrate that FlowBind attains comparable quality while requiring up to 6x fewer parameters and training 10x faster than prior methods.

Unveiling Disparities in Web Task Handling Between Human and Web Agent

With the advancement of Large-Language Models (LLMs) and Large Vision-Language Models (LVMs), agents have shown significant capabilities in various tasks, such as data analysis, gaming, or code generation. Recently, there has been a surge in research on web agents, capable of performing tasks within the web environment. However, the web poses unforeseeable scenarios, challenging the generalizability of these agents. This study investigates the disparities between human and web agents' performance in web tasks (e.g., information search) by concentrating on planning, action, and reflection aspects during task execution. We conducted a web task study with a think-aloud protocol, revealing distinct cognitive actions and operations on websites employed by humans. Comparative examination of existing agent structures and human behavior with thought processes highlighted differences in knowledge updating and ambiguity handling when performing the task. Humans demonstrated a propensity for exploring and modifying plans based on additional information and investigating reasons for failure. These findings offer insights into designing planning, reflection, and information discovery modules for web agents and designing the capturing method for implicit human knowledge in a web task.
