Original abstract

We introduce LHFM, a geometric framework for learning image dynamics. Drawing on structures central to classical mechanics, symplectic geometry, and geometric quantization, LHFM represents each image as an exact Lagrangian graph and models its evolution through image-dependent Hamiltonian flows, which yield a transport--source parameterization of image velocities. Our primary application is deterministic video prediction: LHFM-V is a recurrent model that advances frames by integrating predicted transport and source fields, and achieves the lowest reported FLOP count among the compared recurrent models with similar prediction accuracy. The image variant, LHFM-I, shows that the same construction is compatible with flow matching: in a matched experiment, it attains a lower FID than the flow-matching baseline.
