We introduce the Intrinsic Hybrid Latent Diffusion Model (ILDM), a generative framework that integrates probabilistic dimensionality reduction with geometry-aware diffusion on unknown manifolds. While diffusion models (DMs) have achieved state-of-the-art results in high-dimensional data synthesis, they rely on large training datasets and ignore intrinsic geometric structure.
arXiv:2607. 23226v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite the empirical success of score-based diffusion models, a complete theoretical understanding of how finite-sample learning, network parameterization, and numerical discretization jointly dictate generative quality remains underdeveloped.
arXiv:2607. 19332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching.
arXiv:2604. 04342v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Many data-driven decision problems are formulated using a nominal distribution estimated from historical data, while performance is ultimately determined by a deployment distribution that may be shifted, context-dependent, partially observed, or stress-induced.
Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching. Along the way, the underlying techniques have become more complicated and various beliefs about what drives strong empirical performance have taken hold.
The paper explores using denoising diffusion generative models as plug‑and‑play priors for high‑dimensional inference problems. By combining a pre‑trained diffusion prior with a differentiable auxiliary constraint, the authors enable approximate inference through iterative differentiation across multiple noisy versions of the data. This framework opens possibilities for conditional generation, image segmentation, and novel combinatorial optimization algorithms.

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.
