Diffusion models recover accurate mixture weights despite score function insensitivity

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.

Diffusion Model in Latent Space for Medical Image Segmentation Task

The paper introduces MedSegLatDiff, a diffusion-based framework that combines a variational autoencoder (VAE) with a latent diffusion model for medical image segmentation. By compressing images into a low-dimensional latent space, the method reduces noise and speeds up training, while a weighted cross‑entropy loss preserves tiny structures such as small nodules. Evaluated on ISIC‑2018, CVC‑Clinic, and LIDC‑IDRI datasets, MedSegLatDiff achieves state‑of‑the‑art Dice and IoU scores, generates diverse segmentation hypotheses, and produces confidence maps that enhance interpretability and reliability for clinical deployment.

The Principles of Diffusion Models

The book "The Principles of Diffusion Models" outlines the foundational concepts behind diffusion models, tracing their evolution from a forward process that corrupts data into noise to a reverse process that reconstructs data. It presents three complementary perspectives—variational, score-based, and flow-based—each describing how a time-dependent velocity field transports a simple prior to the data distribution. The text also covers practical guidance for controllable generation, efficient solvers, and diffusion-inspired flow-map models, providing a mathematically grounded framework for readers with basic deep‑learning knowledge.
