• Title: Unpaired Downscaling of Fluid Flows with Diffusion Bridges
• Authors: Tobias Bischoff and Katherine Deck
• Abstract summary: We show how one can chain together two independent conditional diffusion models for use in domain translation. The resulting transformation is a diffusion bridge between a low resolution and a high resolution dataset. We demonstrate that the method enhances resolution and corrects context-dependent biases in geophysical fluid simulations.

• Abstract: We present a method to downscale idealized geophysical fluid simulations using generative models based on diffusion maps. By analyzing the Fourier spectra of images drawn from different data distributions, we show how one can chain together two independent conditional diffusion models for use in domain translation. The resulting transformation is a diffusion bridge between a low resolution and a high resolution dataset and allows for new sample generation of high-resolution images given specific low resolution features. The ability to generate new samples allows for the computation of any statistic of interest, without any additional calibration or training. Our unsupervised setup is also designed to downscale images without access to paired training data; this flexibility allows for the combination of multiple source and target domains without additional training. We demonstrate that the method enhances resolution and corrects context-dependent biases in geophysical fluid simulations, including in extreme events. We anticipate that the same method can be used to downscale the output of climate simulations, including temperature and precipitation fields, without needing to train a new model for each application and providing a significant computational cost savings.

  diffusion models can effectively learn the image distribution and generate new samples. We provide theoretical insights into this phenomenon by leveraging key empirical observations. We show that the minimal number of samples required to learn the underlying distribution scales linearly with the intrinsic dimensions.

• Deep Equilibrium Diffusion Restoration with Parallel Sampling [120.15039525209106]
  Diffusion model-based image restoration (IR) aims to use diffusion models to recover high-quality (HQ) images from degraded images, achieving promising performance. Most existing methods need long serial sampling chains to restore HQ images step-by-step, resulting in expensive sampling time and high computation costs. In this work, we aim to rethink the diffusion model-based IR models through a different perspective, i.e., a deep equilibrium (DEQ) fixed point system, called DeqIR.

  We present SinDiffusion, leveraging denoising diffusion models to capture internal distribution of patches from a single natural image. It is based on two core designs. First, SinDiffusion is trained with a single model at a single scale instead of multiple models with progressive growing of scales. Second, we identify that a patch-level receptive field of the diffusion network is crucial and effective for capturing the image's patch statistics.
