arXiv:2605. 22950v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Score matching is an alternative to maximum likelihood estimation when the normalizing constant is unknown or too costly to evaluate.
arXiv:2508. 01597v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Score Matching (SM) is a powerful framework for estimating the log-density derivatives of a distribution without calculating its normalizing constants.
arXiv:2607. 15485v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Score-based generative models exhibit a puzzling behavior: they often appear to cover all modes of a target multimodal distribution and yet may fail to learn the correct relative mode amplitudes, which can be interpreted as mixture weights.
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: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:2608.23916v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Denoising score matching trains diffusion models by regressing onto a conditional score, although generation ultimately requires the marginal score. Th...
