arXiv:2507. 08390v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Discrete diffusion models have recently emerged as strong alternatives to autoregressive language models, matching their performance through large-scale training.
The paper introduces Learned End-to-End Guidance Schedules (LEEGS) for diffusion models, which train a time‑dependent guidance schedule to balance data quality and requirement satisfaction while reducing sampling steps. LEEGS minimizes the guidance function over a small set of examples using stochastic gradient descent and employs a gradient approximation to cut training time by a factor of four. Experiments on tasks such as image inpainting, noisy image inverse problems, face‑ID‑guided generation, and PDE problems show that LEEGS outperforms baselines at the same computational budget or matches constant guidance with only 10% of the steps.

arXiv:2606. 27171v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This work addresses the problem of variance in stochastic gradient estimation for machine learning optimization.
The paper introduces a transformer-based framework that learns an in‑context score operator for diffusion models, allowing the model to perform reverse‑diffusion sampling on unseen target distributions specified by a small empirical context set. By representing the task‑dependent score as a Gaussian‑kernel conditional mean and approximating it with a transformer‑based query‑dependent attention architecture, the method can adapt to new tasks without retraining or parameter updates. The authors provide theoretical generalization‑error bounds and evaluate the approach on scientific and visual datasets, noting strong performance on simple task families and limitations as task complexity grows.
arXiv:2606. 15048v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion models are typically trained with objectives that focus on local denoising targets at individual time steps (or adjacent pairs), which do not enforce consistency between predictions along the denoising trajectory.
