An Overview of Diffusion Models: Applications, Guided Generation, Statistical Rates and Optimization
扩散模型概览:应用、引导生成、统计速率与优化
Diffusion models, a powerful and universal generative AI technology, have achieved tremendous success in computer vision, audio, reinforcement learning, and computational biology. In these applications, diffusion models provide flexible high-dimensional data modeling, and act as a sampler for generating new samples under active guidance towards task-desired properties. Despite the significant empirical success, theory of diffusion models is very limited, potentially slowing…
