New method enhances diffusion model specificity for precise generation

Researchers have developed a new method called Specificity-Aware Diffusion Steering via Variance-Reduced Sequential Monte Carlo to improve the precision of diffusion models. This technique addresses the challenge of steering models to satisfy new constraints without full retraining, particularly when repelling samples from a negative reference distribution could inadvertently distort desired positive distributions. The proposed method formulates specificity-aware steering as a target-design problem, creating a target distribution that preserves desired references only where they are sufficiently preferred over undesired ones. Experiments on various tasks, including text-to-image generation and peptide-MHC binder prediction, demonstrate improved suppression of undesired regions, reduced mode shift, and enhanced sampling stability compared to existing negative-guidance baselines.
