The paper presents a hybrid generative model that combines denoising diffusion and adversarial training to produce 3D geological microstructures from 2D images. It addresses limitations of previous GAN-based methods like SliceGAN, particularly for heterogeneous materials, by replacing the denoising loss with an adversarial loss to achieve stable training. The resulting model generates microstructures with minimal slice artefacts and accurate phase fractions and structural descriptors.

We introduce TCAM-Diff, a novel 3D medical image generation model that reduces the memory requirements to encode and generate high-resolution 3D data. This model utilizes a decoder-only autoencoder method to learn triplane representation from dense volume and leverages generalization operations to prevent overfitting.

Pixel diffusion models generate RGB images directly but tend to miss fine‑scale natural‑image statistics. The authors introduce an adversarial post‑training step that adds an adversarial loss to the model’s output at non‑high‑noise timesteps, without changing the architecture or sampling procedure. This approach improves distribution fidelity, coverage, prompt alignment, and perceptual quality across two pixel backbones, and restores missing high‑frequency spectral power while avoiding memorization or mode dropping.
