Conformal changes of generalized complex structures

TLDR
In this article, the generalized almost complex and almost Hermitian structures that are locally conformal to integrable and to generalized K\"ahler structures, respectively, are characterized.
Abstract
A conformal change of $TM\oplus T^*M$ is a morphism of the form $(X,\alpha)\mapsto(X,e^\tau\alpha)$ $(X\in TM,\alpha\in T^*M,\tau\in C^\infty(M))$ We characterize the generalized almost complex and almost Hermitian structures that are locally conformal to integrable and to generalized K\"ahler structures, respectively, and give examples of such structures
