New variance-tilted diffusion models enhance sample diversity

Researchers have developed a new method called variance-tilted diffusion models to improve the diversity of samples generated by diffusion models. This approach introduces a variance-weighted batch distribution that encourages collections of samples with significant spread after applying a linear feature map. The method is derived as a Doob h-transform of independent diffusion dynamics, resulting in an interacting-particle sampler that aims for a probabilistic target rather than a heuristic drift. AI

    Variance-Tilted Diffusion Models for Diverse Sampling

    Diffusion models are typically sampled independently, even when the downstream objective is to obtain a diverse set of candidates. We introduce a variance-weighted batch distribution that favours collections of samples with large empirical spread after a prescribed linear feature…
