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: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:2606. 16610v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion Flow Matching (DFM) has recently emerged as a versatile framework for generative modeling, yet its theoretical convergence properties remain only partially understood.

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:2603. 18907v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We propose a new Neural Galerkin Normalizing Flow framework to approximate the transition probability density function of a diffusion process by solving the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation with an atomic initial distribution, parametrically with respect to the location of the initial mass.

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: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. 18071v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Score-based diffusion models typically use Brownian perturbations, which provide tractable reverse-time dynamics but impose memoryless noising.

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

arXiv:2607. 22199v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Score-based diffusion models have achieved remarkable empirical success in generative modeling, yet their approximation-theoretic foundations remain incomplete.

arXiv:2604. 04342v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Many data-driven decision problems are formulated using a nominal distribution estimated from historical data, while performance is ultimately determined by a deployment distribution that may be shifted, context-dependent, partially observed, or stress-induced.

arXiv:2608. 03117v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The performance of generative diffusion models is determined by the choice of the reference diffusion process connecting the empirical and prior distributions.
