FLARE: Flow Matching with Local Axis-Angle Representations for Stochastic Micromagnetic Evolution
TL;DR
FLARE is a flow-matching framework that recasts stochastic finite-time magnetization prediction as conditional transport over anchor-relative local axis-angle rotations and preserves pointwise unit norm by construction.
Abstract
Long-horizon micromagnetic simulation remains expensive because conventional and learned solvers typically propagate Landau--Lifshitz--Gilbert (LLG) dynamics step by step. Existing learned approaches generally retain stepwise integration or model deterministic evolution, leaving full-field, direct-horizon stochastic prediction largely unexplored. We propose FLARE, a flow-matching framework that recasts stochastic finite-time magnetization prediction as conditional transport over anchor-relative local axis-angle rotations. This rotation-space formulation respects the intrinsic geometry of magnetization dynamics and preserves pointwise unit norm by construction. By explicitly conditioning on the physical prediction horizon, FLARE directly generates full-field stochastic endpoints across multiple target times without stepwise integration. Against the strongest single-checkpoint external baseline on each metric, FLARE achieves 29.9% lower angular energy distance ($15.30^\circ$), and a 37.3% lower fair energy score (0.393). On a representative composed 5-ns two-segment protocol, FLARE achieves a $3{,}062\times$ best-batch speedup over the widely used GPU micromagnetic solver MuMax$^3$ on a single GPU.
