arXiv:2606. 19894v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The remarkable success of score-based diffusion models has spurred significant efforts to establish their theoretical foundations.
arXiv:2502. 19499v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion models have achieved remarkable progress in various domains with an intriguing ability to produce new data that do not exist in the training set.
arXiv:2607. 19332v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching.
arXiv:2510. 22899v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We investigate the role of network architecture in shaping the inductive biases of modern score-based generative models.
arXiv:2606. 00094v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Image generative models aim to sample data points from the underlying data manifold, a task that requires learning and decoding a dense, low-dimensional, and compact parameterization space.
arXiv:2512. 20963v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion models excel at generating high-quality, diverse samples, yet they risk memorizing training data when overfit to the training objective.
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.
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.

Generative models have undergone many generations of evolution, from VAEs/GANs to diffusion/flow matching. Along the way, the underlying techniques have become more complicated and various beliefs about what drives strong empirical performance have taken hold.
Diffusion transformer (DiT) research on image generation has converged to a single evaluation setup: class-conditional generation on ImageNet. While methods improve the FID and related metrics, it is increasingly unclear whether they reflect real progress in generative modeling.
