A new paper introduces a non-asymptotic error analysis for Sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods when used with biased proposals. The research, authored by Stanislas Strasman, decomposes the total error into kernel bias and finite-particle Monte Carlo error. This framework is applied to conditional sampling with score-based diffusion models, providing the first non-asymptotic bound that accounts for initialization error, time discretization, score approximation, and finite-particle error.
