# Distribution Matching Variational AutoEncoder (DMVAE)
This repository contains the official implementation of the paper [**"Distribution Matching Variational AutoEncoder"**](https://huggingface.co/papers/2512.07778).
![DMVAE Framework](https://github.com/sen-ye/dmvae/raw/main/figs/dmvae.png)
DMVAE introduces a novel approach to visual generative models by explicitly aligning the encoder's latent distribution with an arbitrary reference distribution via a distribution matching constraint. This method generalizes beyond the Gaussian prior of conventional VAEs, enabling alignment with distributions derived from self-supervised features, diffusion noise, or other prior distributions, leading to efficient and high-fidelity image synthesis.
For more details on the installation, training, and evaluation, please refer to the official [GitHub repository](https://github.com/sen-ye/dmvae).
