Diffusion models are increasingly used as controllable samplers, whose generations can be steered at inference time according to a chosen reward function. While such rewards are typically defined on individual samples, for many applications it is desirable to steer according to distribution-level rewards, for example to calibrate with population-level information or to encourage diversity.

arXiv:2607. 07693v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) has emerged as a powerful paradigm for aligning generative models with human preferences.
arXiv:2602. 03211v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion models have demonstrated strong generative performance; however, generated samples often fail to fully align with human intent.
arXiv:2608. 14430v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement learning (RL) post-training provides a direct way to align diffusion models with human preferences and task-specific rewards.
arXiv:2608. 03929v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Aligning diffusion models with human preferences usually relies on a sparse terminal reward evaluated on the final generated samples, presenting a severe temporal credit-assignment challenge across the multi-step denoising process.
