• Abstract: Most existing generative models are limited to learning a single probability distribution from the training data and cannot generalize to novel distributions for unseen data. An architecture that can generate samples from both trained datasets and unseen probability distributions would mark a significant breakthrough. Recently, score-based generative models have gained considerable attention for their comprehensive mode coverage and high-quality image synthesis, as they effectively learn an operator that maps a probability distribution to its corresponding score function. In this work, we introduce the $\emph{Score Neural Operator}$, which learns the mapping from multiple probability distributions to their score functions within a unified framework. We employ latent space techniques to facilitate the training of score matching, which tends to over-fit in the original image pixel space, thereby enhancing sample generation quality. Our trained Score Neural Operator demonstrates the ability to predict score functions of probability measures beyond the training space and exhibits strong generalization performance in both 2-dimensional Gaussian Mixture Models and 1024-dimensional MNIST double-digit datasets. Importantly, our approach offers significant potential for few-shot learning applications, where a single image from a new distribution can be leveraged to generate multiple distinct images from that distribution.

  This paper proposes a novel hierarchical visual category modeling scheme to separate out-of-distribution data from in-distribution data.

  Longtailed distributions frequently emerge in real-world data, where a large number of minority categories contain a limited number of samples. Recent investigations have revealed that supervised contrastive learning exhibits promising potential in alleviating the data imbalance. We propose a novel probabilistic contrastive (ProCo) learning algorithm that estimates the data distribution of the samples from each class in the feature space.

  Internal learning for single-image generation is a framework, where a generator is trained to produce novel images based on a single image. We propose a meta-learning approach that enables training over a collection of images, in order to model the internal statistics of the sample image more effectively. Our results show that the models obtained are as suitable as single-image GANs for many common image applications.
