arXiv:2607. 04780v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods are a natural tool for post-hoc conditioning of pretrained generative models, but in many applications the mutation kernels used by the particle system are biased approximations of an ideal Feynman--Kac flow.

We study the problem of sampling from target distributions whose potentials are simultaneously non-smooth, subject to superlinear gradient growth, and non-convex. We introduce the Subgradient Tamed Unadjusted Langevin Algorithm (SG-TULA), a discretisation of the Langevin diffusion that operates directly on subgradients, without relying on computationally demanding smoothing procedures.
arXiv:2503. 14549v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: How can a cheap but biased sequential, finite-horizon sampler over a discrete space be corrected so that its terminal output follows a prescribed Gibbs distribution?

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.
