arXiv:2606. 03347v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score-based diffusion models have emerged as prominent deep generative models; however, their application to tabular data remains challenging because their backbones assume fully specified inputs, whereas real-world tabular data often contain missing values.

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.

Recent advances in diffusion models have shown impressive performance in controllable image generation and dense prediction tasks. However, existing approaches typically treat diffusion-based controllable generation and dense prediction as separate tasks, overlooking the potential benefits of jointly modeling the heterogeneous distributions.

The paper introduces a causal‑penalized diffusion model for generating synthetic tabular data, arguing that high statistical fidelity does not guarantee accurate causal inference. It defines causal fidelity as the discrepancy between inferential distributions from real and synthetic data and proposes a training framework that adds a causal discrepancy penalty to the generative objective. Experiments on treatment‑effect simulations and benchmark datasets demonstrate that the method can improve causal fidelity while maintaining competitive statistical fidelity.
