• Abstract summary: This work presents a new score-decomposed diffusion model to explicitly optimize the tangled distributions during image generation. We equalize the refinement parts of the score function and energy guidance, which permits multi-objective optimization on the manifold. SDDM outperforms existing SBDM-based methods with much fewer diffusion steps on several I2I benchmarks.

• Abstract: Recent score-based diffusion models (SBDMs) show promising results in unpaired image-to-image translation (I2I). However, existing methods, either energy-based or statistically-based, provide no explicit form of the interfered intermediate generative distributions. This work presents a new score-decomposed diffusion model (SDDM) on manifolds to explicitly optimize the tangled distributions during image generation. SDDM derives manifolds to make the distributions of adjacent time steps separable and decompose the score function or energy guidance into an image ``denoising" part and a content ``refinement" part. To refine the image in the same noise level, we equalize the refinement parts of the score function and energy guidance, which permits multi-objective optimization on the manifold. We also leverage the block adaptive instance normalization module to construct manifolds with lower dimensions but still concentrated with the perturbed reference image. SDDM outperforms existing SBDM-based methods with much fewer diffusion steps on several I2I benchmarks.

  We distill a complex multistep diffusion model into a single-step conditional GAN student model.

We demonstrate that our one-step generator outperforms cutting-edge one-step diffusion distillation models.

  Denoising diffusion probabilistic models (DDPMs) have achieved impressive performance on various image generation tasks. DDPMs generate new data by iteratively denoising from random noise. But diffusion-based generative models suffer from high computational costs due to the large number of denoising steps. This paper proposes the Partial Diffusion Model (PartDiff), which diffuses the image to an intermediate latent state instead of pure random noise.

  Existing models such as Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM) deliver high-quality, diverse samples but are slowed by an inherently high number of iterative steps. We introduce a novel approach that tackles the problem by matching implicit and explicit factors. We demonstrate that our proposed method obtains comparable generative performance to diffusion-based models and vastly superior results to models with a small number of sampling steps.
