Probabilistic Inversion with Flow Matching

We demonstrate the application of Flow Matching, a technique originating from generative Artificial Intelligence, to probabilistic inversion in geophysical settings, such as seismic Full-Waveform inversion. We adapt the well-established mathematical theory of Flow Matching from generative Artificial Intelligence to the context of probabilistic inversion. We evaluate the approach with two case studies: a simple 2D velocity model to illustrate the general features of the method, and the OpenFWI dataset to show its capabilities for probabilistic inversion of more complex seismic velocity models.
