• Abstract summary: Ambient Diffusion Posterior Sampling (A-DPS) is a generative model pre-trained on one type of corruption. We show that A-DPS can sometimes outperform models trained on clean data for several image restoration tasks in both speed and performance. We extend the Ambient Diffusion framework to train MRI models with access only to Fourier subsampled multi-coil MRI measurements.

• Abstract: We provide a framework for solving inverse problems with diffusion models learned from linearly corrupted data. Our method, Ambient Diffusion Posterior Sampling (A-DPS), leverages a generative model pre-trained on one type of corruption (e.g. image inpainting) to perform posterior sampling conditioned on measurements from a potentially different forward process (e.g. image blurring). We test the efficacy of our approach on standard natural image datasets (CelebA, FFHQ, and AFHQ) and we show that A-DPS can sometimes outperform models trained on clean data for several image restoration tasks in both speed and performance. We further extend the Ambient Diffusion framework to train MRI models with access only to Fourier subsampled multi-coil MRI measurements at various acceleration factors (R=2, 4, 6, 8). We again observe that models trained on highly subsampled data are better priors for solving inverse problems in the high acceleration regime than models trained on fully sampled data. We open-source our code and the trained Ambient Diffusion MRI models: https://github.com/utcsilab/ambient-diffusion-mri .

  We propose a principled expectation-maximization (EM) framework that iteratively learns diffusion models from noisy data with arbitrary corruption types. Our framework employs a plug-and-play Monte Carlo method to accurately estimate clean images from noisy measurements, followed by training the diffusion model using the reconstructed images.

  We propose an expectation-maximization (EM) approach to train diffusion models from corrupted observations. Our method alternates between reconstructing clean images from corrupted data using a known diffusion model (E-step) and refining diffusion model weights based on these reconstructions (M-step) This iterative process leads the learned diffusion model to gradually converge to the true clean data distribution.

• Blind Image Restoration via Fast Diffusion Inversion [17.139433082780037]
  Blind Image Restoration via fast Diffusion (BIRD) is a blind IR method that jointly optimize for the degradation model parameters and the restored image. A key idea in our method is not to modify the reverse sampling, i.e., not to alter all the intermediate latents, once an initial noise is sampled. We experimentally validate BIRD on several image restoration tasks and show that it achieves state of the art performance on all of them.

• 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.

  Inverse tasks can be formulated as inferring a posterior distribution over data. This is however challenging in diffusion models since the nonlinear and iterative nature of the diffusion process renders the posterior intractable. We propose a variational approach that by design seeks to approximate the true posterior distribution.
