New method enables learning for physical generative models

Researchers have developed a method to train score-based generative models (SGMs) using local learning rules, which can be derived from physical measurements or observed system dynamics. This approach was demonstrated by applying it to a network of driven oscillators to sample from a 2D Gaussian mixture and, more significantly, to generate images of handwritten digits 0 and 1 from the MNIST dataset. The study shows that the complex training protocols of SGMs can be simplified through these localized learning mechanisms. AI
