arXiv:2607. 19333v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion-based methods have achieved remarkable empirical success in solving inverse problems.
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.
The paper introduces a Posterior‑Dynamics Framework that leverages pretrained diffusion models as multiscale priors for linear imaging inverse problems such as deblurring, super‑resolution, and inpainting. By constructing a surrogate likelihood centered on the clean image and incorporating diffusion uncertainty, the authors derive continuous posterior dynamics and a tunable Langevin component for adaptive exploration. They prove theoretical guarantees (endpoint consistency, finite‑horizon tracking, weak accuracy) and present the PD‑IMEX sampler, which achieves high‑quality reconstructions with only 100 score evaluations and controllable fidelity‑diversity trade‑offs.
arXiv:2602. 11711v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This article addresses the issue of estimating observation parameters (response and error parameters) in inverse problems.
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.
arXiv:2605. 08328v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Generative models based on flow matching have emerged as a powerful paradigm for inverse problems, offering straighter trajectories and faster sampling compared to diffusion models.
