New diffusion model SORD removes unknown corruptions from data

Researchers have developed Support-guided OOD Removal with Diffusion (SORD), an iterative algorithm designed to recover clean signals from data corrupted by localized, unknown perturbations. SORD requires only a binary map of the corruption's support and a pre-trained diffusion model, eliminating the need for paired data or statistical models of the corruption. The method has been evaluated on natural images and audio recordings, demonstrating competitive or superior performance compared to existing inpainting techniques, source-separation baselines, and supervised networks. AI

IMPACT Introduces a novel method for data denoising and restoration using diffusion models, potentially improving data quality in various AI applications.

    Support-guided OOD Removal with Diffusion

    arXiv:2610.33194v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many real-world signals are corrupted by localized, structured perturbations whose distribution is unknown: an intermittent background noise in a music recording, a watermark stamped on a photograph, a cast shadow. We study the task…
