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. 15485v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Score-based generative models exhibit a puzzling behavior: they often appear to cover all modes of a target multimodal distribution and yet may fail to learn the correct relative mode amplitudes, which can be interpreted as mixture weights.

arXiv:2608. 02799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score-based diffusion models are typically formulated using continuous-time stochastic differential equations and measure-theoretic stochastic calculus.

arXiv:2606. 06179v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score-based diffusion models are typically trained by minimizing the $L^2$ score matching error, and standard theoretical analyses rely on this quantity to bound the sampling discrepancy between the learned and target distributions.

arXiv:2607. 22199v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Score-based diffusion models have achieved remarkable empirical success in generative modeling, yet their approximation-theoretic foundations remain incomplete.
