Diffusion and flow-matching samplers integrate a learned probability-flow ODE from a large noise scale down to a small terminal floor $σ_{\min}$, at which the score is stiff and the flow develops a boundary layer. We treat $σ_{\min}$ as a singular-perturbation parameter and determine which fixed-step samplers are asymptotic-preserving (AP), that is, stable and uniformly accurate as $σ_{\min}\to0$, casting the criteria as an a posteriori audit: residual functionals with $σ_{\min}$-uniform coefficients, computable on a pretrained checkpoint without ground-truth scores or exact trajectories.

FB‑GDM is a fully‑Bayesian guided diffusion method that eliminates the need for task‑specific hyperparameter tuning in linear inverse problems. It derives a closed‑form conditional score from a Gaussian approximation of ΦGDM, treating two precision parameters as latent variables inferred via variational inference at each reverse step. Experiments on CelebA‑HQ show that FB‑GDM outperforms ΦGDM at its nominal setting, matches a ground‑truth‑calibrated oracle within 0.1 dB, and remains robust to changes in the forward operator, noise level, or image distribution without hallucinations.
