arXiv:2510. 10968v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Derivative-free Bayesian inversion arises in science and engineering applications, particularly when forward model is costly or infeasible to differentiate through.

arXiv:2602. 11059v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper addresses the issue of inversion in cases where (1) the observation system is modeled by a linear transformation and additive error, (2) the problem is ill-posed and regularization relies on a Bayesian strategy, (3)~the prior is modeled by a diffusion process adjusted on an available large set of examples.

Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods are a natural tool for post-hoc conditioning of pretrained generative models, but in many applications the mutation kernels used by the particle system are biased approximations of an ideal Feynman--Kac flow. This paper develops a non-asymptotic error analysis for such SMC samplers.
arXiv:2511. 17038v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: From a Bayesian perspective, score-based diffusion solves inverse problems through joint inference, embedding the likelihood with the prior to guide the sampling process.

arXiv:2608. 06283v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the problem of sampling from target distributions whose potentials are simultaneously non-smooth, subject to superlinear gradient growth, and non-convex.

arXiv:2606. 26592v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose latent-space diffusion posterior sampling (L-DPS), an approximate Bayesian framework for high-dimensional inverse problems governed by partial differential equations (PDEs).

We study the problem of sampling from target distributions whose potentials are simultaneously non-smooth, subject to superlinear gradient growth, and non-convex. We introduce the Subgradient Tamed Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm (SG-TULA), a discretisation of the Langevin diffusion that operates directly on subgradients, without relying on computationally demanding smoothing procedures.
arXiv:2603. 11319v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We consider the robustness of score-based generative modeling to errors in the estimate of the score function.

arXiv:2601. 08527v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose a novel method for sampling from unnormalized Boltzmann densities based on a probability flow ordinary differential equation (ODE) derived from linear stochastic interpolants.

arXiv:2608. 15144v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Posterior sampling with a pretrained diffusion prior is governed by a conditional score whose intermediate likelihood component is generally intractable.
