Key Points
- The paper studies how architecture choices and dataset size affect the sample quality and diversity produced by flow-matching generative models.
- Experiments on the CelebA-HQ dataset show that flow matching stays stable even after pruning 50% of the training data, preserving both quality and diversity.
- The latent representations are only slightly affected by pruning, meaning models trained on full versus pruned data produce visually similar outputs for the same seed.
- Similar stability is observed under changes to model architecture and training configuration, indicating robustness of the learned latent mapping to various perturbations.
