Lantern: Conflict-Aware Gradient Blending for Physics-Guided Diffusion Models in Calorimeter Simulation

The Correlation Frobenius Distance is introduced, a single normalized score for correlation fidelity at layer-wise and voxel-wise scales, and encoded the soft per-sample structure available in a shower as two physics-aware auxiliary losses: a variance-stabilized voxel residual loss grounded in counting statistics, and a graph Laplacian loss over the detector geometry.
