Image Details
Caption: Figure 2.
The I2SB framework used to generate Euclid-like VIS predictions from DESI. The image sequence runs between two fixed endpoints, the DESI r-band source x1 (left) and the Euclid VIS target x0 (right), through intermediate states xt. The blue arrow marks the forward bridge interpolation (Equation (1)); the orange arrow marks reverse sampling, in which the U-Net ϵθ, conditioned on the DESI z band (c = xz), predicts an estimate of the Euclid endpoint from xt, and the posterior update produces the next reverse state. Intermediate frames are model states, not observations.
