arXiv:2606. 23920v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The task of compositional generation involves using a conditional generative model, trained only on a subset of the possible conditions, to produce samples from compositionally-defined target distributions such as a geometric combination of the source distributions.

arXiv:2506. 11378v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Sampling in score-based diffusion models can be performed by solving either a reverse-time stochastic differential equation (SDE) parameterized by an arbitrary stochasticity function or a probability flow ODE, corresponding to setting this stochasticity function to zero.

arXiv:2411. 00214v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Otto's Wasserstein gradient flow of the inclusive (forward) Kullback--Leibler (KL) divergence offers a principled framework for analyzing statistical inference algorithms, yet algorithms targeting the exclusive (reverse) KL divergence are rarely studied with such tools.

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:2605. 13175v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent works have proposed incorporating heavy-tailed (HT) noise into diffusion- and flow-based generative models, with the goals of better recovering the tails of target distributions and improving generative diversity.

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:2607. 14398v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Constrained generative models aim to produce samples that satisfy complex feasibility constraints while remaining faithful to the data distribution.

arXiv:2510. 12636v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The default Gaussian latent in flow-based generative models poses challenges when learning certain distributions such as heavy-tailed ones.

arXiv:2507. 07008v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Used as priors for Bayesian inverse problems, diffusion models have recently attracted considerable attention in the literature.

arXiv:2502. 07580v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We present a novel view of diffusion-like generative modeling from the perspective of iterative Gaussian posterior inference.

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:2501. 12982v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper investigates how diffusion generative models leverage (unknown) low-dimensional structure to accelerate sampling.
