We study timestep allocation for score-based diffusion sampling, where a learned reverse-time dynamics is discretized on a finite grid. Uniform and hand-crafted schedules are standard choices, but they rely on fixed prescriptions and can therefore be suboptimal.

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.

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.
