arXiv:2606. 06179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score-based diffusion models are typically trained by minimizing the $L^2$ score matching error, and standard theoretical analyses rely on this quantity to bound the sampling discrepancy between the learned and target distributions.
arXiv:2508. 01597v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Score Matching (SM) is a powerful framework for estimating the log-density derivatives of a distribution without calculating its normalizing constants.
arXiv:2607. 04442v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion models (DMs) are a state-of-the-art generative method to approximately sample from an unknown distribution.
arXiv:2504.05161v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Score estimation is the backbone of score-based generative models (SGMs), especially denoising diffusion probabilistic models (DDPMs). A key...
arXiv:2604. 02751v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion models often degrade in latent spaces, yet the formal causes remain poorly understood.
arXiv:2609.16788v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Noise2Noise (N2N) trains denoisers on pairs of independently corrupted observations, eliminating clean references. We stress-test two natural conjectur...
arXiv:2607. 15485v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Score-based generative models exhibit a puzzling behavior: they often appear to cover all modes of a target multimodal distribution and yet may fail to learn the correct relative mode amplitudes, which can be interpreted as mixture weights.
arXiv:2606. 19876v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The score matching problem is a central training objective in modern generative modeling, diffusion models, fitting unnormalized statistical models, and inverse problems.
arXiv:2609.05688v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study variance-preserving diffusion of the response in mixed linear regression (MLR) with unknown mixing weights. Our analysis separates the statist...
arXiv:2606. 20469v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A widely held intuition in deep learning is that stochastic gradient descent (SGD) implicitly favors flat minima and that flat minima generalize better, but standard Euclidean measures of flatness such as the trace or maximum eigenvalue of the loss Hessian are not invariant under reparametrizations that preserve the network function, which undermines the theoretical foundations of this narrative.
arXiv:2607. 08757v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score matching controls average error under the forward marginals, but a discretized reverse-time sampler evaluates the learned score along its own trajectory.
arXiv:2605. 22950v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Score matching is an alternative to maximum likelihood estimation when the normalizing constant is unknown or too costly to evaluate.
