• Abstract: Deep generative models are becoming widely used across science and industry for a variety of purposes. A common challenge is achieving a precise implicit or explicit representation of the data probability density. Recent proposals have suggested using classifier weights to refine the learned density of deep generative models. We extend this idea to all types of generative models and show how latent space refinement via iterated generative modeling can circumvent topological obstructions and improve precision. This methodology also applies to cases were the target model is non-differentiable and has many internal latent dimensions which must be marginalized over before refinement. We demonstrate our Latent Space Refinement (LaSeR) protocol on a variety of examples, focusing on the combinations of Normalizing Flows and Generative Adversarial Networks.

  We introduce ReaLS, which integrates semantic priors to improve generation performance. We show that fundamental DiT and SiT trained on ReaLS can achieve a 15% improvement in FID metric. The enhanced semantic latent space enables more perceptual downstream tasks, such as segmentation and depth estimation.

We extend speculative sampling to diffusion models, which generate samples via continuous, vector-valued Markov chains. We propose various drafting strategies, including a simple and effective approach that does not require training a draft model.

  Deep generative models have demonstrated successful applications in learning non-linear data distributions through a number of latent variables. The nonlinearity of the generator implies that the latent space shows an unsatisfactory projection of the data space, which results in poor representation learning. We show that geodesics and accurate computation can substantially improve the performance of deep generative models.

• Unveiling the Latent Space Geometry of Push-Forward Generative Models [24.025975236316846]
  Many deep generative models are defined as a push-forward of a Gaussian measure by a continuous generator, such as Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) or Variational Auto-Encoders (VAEs) This work explores the latent space of such deep generative models. A key issue with these models is their tendency to output samples outside of the support of the target distribution when learning disconnected distributions.
