Pixel‑Space Diffusion via Observation Operators introduces a new framework for pixel‑space diffusion models that addresses a scale‑time mismatch in existing methods. By replacing fixed full‑image supervision with a time‑indexed observation trajectory that progresses from coarse structures to the full image, the model aligns supervision with the natural recovery order of image details. The approach employs Gaussian‑Lanczos operators and a GL‑CoDA decoder to refine features progressively, resulting in faster convergence and higher generation quality, achieving an FID of 1.52 on ImageNet‑256.

The paper introduces a high‑resolution Rectified Flow Matching model trained on 256×256 chest CT images to serve as a generative prior for CT reconstruction. A two‑stage training strategy—initial strong anatomically informed augmentation followed by fine‑tuning—helps mitigate overfitting and improve structural fidelity. When evaluated on various CT inverse problems, Flow Matching‑based reconstruction methods outperform diffusion‑based algorithms in PSNR, SSIM, and perceptual quality while requiring fewer sampling steps.

The paper introduces LEADer, a framework that uses local epistemic uncertainty to guide active sampling in diffusion-based image restoration. By adjusting prior strength per pixel and pruning sampling trajectories based on uncertainty traces, LEADer balances detail preservation with artifact suppression and accelerates convergence. The method is plug‑and‑play, theoretically guarantees data consistency and stable convergence, and improves performance across multiple state‑of‑the‑art diffusion models with minimal memory overhead.

arXiv:2606. 04299v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider the problem of generating images whose internal structure -- defined by the distribution of patches across multiple scales -- matches that of a single reference image.
