Abstract: Diffusion-based models have shown the merits of generating high-quality visual data while preserving better diversity in recent studies. However, such observation is only justified with curated data distribution, where the data samples are nicely pre-processed to be uniformly distributed in terms of their labels. In practice, a long-tailed data distribution appears more common and how diffusion models perform on such class-imbalanced data remains unknown. In this work, we first investigate this problem and observe significant degradation in both diversity and fidelity when the diffusion model is trained on datasets with class-imbalanced distributions. Especially in tail classes, the generations largely lose diversity and we observe severe mode-collapse issues. To tackle this problem, we set from the hypothesis that the data distribution is not class-balanced, and propose Class-Balancing Diffusion Models (CBDM) that are trained with a distribution adjustment regularizer as a solution. Experiments show that images generated by CBDM exhibit higher diversity and quality in both quantitative and qualitative ways. Our method benchmarked the generation results on CIFAR100/CIFAR100LT dataset and shows outstanding performance on the downstream recognition task.

Anisotropic Diffusion Probabilistic Model for Imbalanced Image Classification [8.364943466191933]
We propose the Anisotropic Diffusion Probabilistic Model (ADPM) for imbalanced image classification problems. We use the data distribution to control the diffusion speed of different class samples during the forward process, effectively improving the classification accuracy of the denoiser in the reverse process. Our results confirm that the anisotropic diffusion model significantly improves the classification accuracy of rare classes while maintaining the accuracy of head classes.

Training Class-Imbalanced Diffusion Model Via Overlap Optimization [55.96820607533968]
Diffusion models trained on real-world datasets often yield inferior fidelity for tail classes. Deep generative models, including diffusion models, are biased towards classes with abundant training images. We propose a method based on contrastive learning to minimize the overlap between distributions of synthetic images for different classes.

Fair GANs through model rebalancing for extremely imbalanced class distributions [5.463417677777276]
We present an approach to construct an unbiased generative adversarial network (GAN) from an existing biased GAN. We show results for the StyleGAN2 models while training on the Flickr Faces High Quality (FFHQ) dataset for racial fairness. We further validate our approach by applying it to an imbalanced CIFAR10 dataset which is also twice as large.

Diff-Instruct: A Universal Approach for Transferring Knowledge From Pre-trained Diffusion Models [77.83923746319498]
We propose a framework called Diff-Instruct to instruct the training of arbitrary generative models. We show that Diff-Instruct results in state-of-the-art single-step diffusion-based models. Experiments on refining GAN models show that the Diff-Instruct can consistently improve the pre-trained generators of GAN models.

Analyzing Bias in Diffusion-based Face Generation Models [75.80072686374564]
Diffusion models are increasingly popular in synthetic data generation and image editing applications. We investigate the presence of bias in diffusion-based face generation models with respect to attributes such as gender, race, and age. We examine how dataset size affects the attribute composition and perceptual quality of both diffusion and Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) based face generation models.

Imbalanced Data Learning by Minority Class Augmentation using Capsule Adversarial Networks [31.073558420480964]
We propose a method to restore the balance in imbalanced images, by coalescing two concurrent methods. In our model, generative and discriminative networks play a novel competitive game. The coalescing of capsule-GAN is effective at recognizing highly overlapping classes with much fewer parameters compared with the convolutional-GAN.
