No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Correlation matrices combine nonlinear positive-definiteness constraints with a simultaneous row-column permutation symmetry. Their generation therefore involves two distinct problems. First, every output must remain on the correlation elliptope, irrespective of how its variables are ordered. Second, the generator must learn the domain-specific distribution occupied by empirical data inside that valid space. Existing financial image generators mix these problems: they learn ordered matrix entries and repair invalid draws afterward. We introduce CorrFlow, which separates them. A generalized Fisher transform maps full-rank correlation matrices bijectively to unconstrained coordinates, guaranteeing valid outputs without projection. A graph flow-matching network learns the empirical distribution in those coordinates and is permutation equivariant: reordering the variables only reorders the output. We compare a conditional CorrGAN reimplementation, image diffusion, and CorrFlow on $80\times80$ Taiwan equity matrices using five seeds per neural method. CorrFlow produces 100% valid draws without repair and obtains feature sliced-Wasserstein distance $.712\pm.141$, versus $4.339\pm.252$ for CorrGAN and $4.610\pm.191$ for image diffusion after their invalid outputs are projected back to the correlation space. It also improves this distance over historical lookup, while lookup retains higher local coverage. These results support the combined construction under the evaluated training budget; they do not establish superiority over fully tuned image models or isolate the contribution of each component.
