Latent representations for generative models.| Sander Dieleman
A deep dive into spectral analysis of diffusion models of images, revealing how they implicitly perform a form of autoregression in the frequency domain.| Sander Dieleman
The noise schedule is a key design parameter for diffusion models. Unfortunately it is a superfluous abstraction that entangles several different model aspects. Do we really need it?| Sander Dieleman
Thoughts on the tension between iterative refinement as the thing that makes diffusion models work, and our continual attempts to make it _less_ iterative.| Sander Dieleman
More thoughts on diffusion guidance, with a focus on its geometry in the input space.| Sander Dieleman
Perspectives on diffusion, or how diffusion models are autoencoders, deep latent variable models, score function predictors, reverse SDE solvers, flow-based models, RNNs, and autoregressive models, all at once!| Sander Dieleman
Diffusion models have completely taken over generative modelling of perceptual signals -- why is autoregression still the name of the game for language modelling? Can we do anything about that?| Sander Dieleman
A quick post with some thoughts on diffusion guidance| Sander Dieleman
Diffusion models have become very popular over the last two years. There is an underappreciated link between diffusion models and autoencoders.| Sander Dieleman
This is an addendum to my post about typicality, where I try to quantify flawed intuitions about high-dimensional distributions.| Sander Dieleman
A summary of my current thoughts on typicality, and its relevance to likelihood-based generative models.| Sander Dieleman
Anything that looks like genuine understanding is just an illusion.| The Gradient
