CRNDiff: Count-Native Diffusion Framework via Chemical Reaction Networks

CRNDiff is a new count‑native diffusion framework that uses stochastic chemical reaction networks to model nonnegative integer data such as single‑cell RNA sequencing. It provides a closed‑form forward‑noising kernel, enabling efficient reverse sampling via forward‑filtering backward‑sampling and data‑driven selection of the terminal noising time. The method also introduces tilted Feynman–Kac steering to sample rare subpopulations without retraining, and demonstrates superior conditional fidelity and marker‑level preservation on human heart scRNA‑seq data.
