📝 Abstract
Drifting models offer a promising route to faster generative AI: they perform gradual transport during training, while generating new samples in a single step. This paper asks whether the underlying drifting process can converge rapidly to a target distribution under ideal conditions, before finite-data or optimization effects are introduced. We show that its convergence rate depends critically on how it handles spatial scale. With a single fixed resolution, fine-scale features of the target can become nearly invisible, leading to extremely slow convergence. We introduce a multihead approach that combines scale-normalized information across a continuum of resolutions. We prove that this multihead approach restores exponential convergence near standard reference distributions. These results identify fixed resolution as a key bottleneck and provide a simple route to faster one-step generative models.
