The history of them is shared with diffusion and goes back to the Whitening Transform. Flows work by a coordinate transform so we have an isomorphism where diffusion works through, for easier understanding, a hierarchical mixture of gaussians. Which is a lossy process (more confusing when we get into latent diffusion models, which are the primary type used). The goal of a Normalizing Flow is to turn your sampling distribution, which you don&amp;#x27;t…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2412.06264/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
