arXiv:2508. 01597v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Score Matching (SM) is a powerful framework for estimating the log-density derivatives of a distribution without calculating its normalizing constants.
arXiv:2607. 04442v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion models (DMs) are a state-of-the-art generative method to approximately sample from an unknown distribution.
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:2502. 00336v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We theoretically investigate the phenomena of generalization and memorization in diffusion models.
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:2501. 12982v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper investigates how diffusion generative models leverage (unknown) low-dimensional structure to accelerate sampling.
arXiv:2512. 23818v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Denoising and score estimation are classically linked through Tweedie's formula, which relates the posterior mean under Gaussian noise to the Stein score of the noisy marginal.
Score-based Generative Models (SGMs) have achieved impressive performance in data generation across a wide range of applications. While the statistical properties of their sampling procedures are increasingly well understood, the optimization dynamics underlying their training remain less explored.

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:2511. 03963v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We introduce a density-power weighted variant of the Stein operator, called the $\gamma$-Stein operator, for robust inference with unnormalized probability models.
arXiv:2508. 03636v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose a Likelihood Matching approach for training diffusion models by first establishing an equivalence between the likelihood of the target data distribution and a likelihood along the sample path of the reverse diffusion.
arXiv:2606. 17048v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion and flow-based models learn powerful data priors by training a denoiser to reverse Gaussian corruption.
