• Abstract: This paper studies stable learning methods for generative models that enable high-quality data generation. Noise injection is commonly used to stabilize learning. However, selecting a suitable noise distribution is challenging. Diffusion-GAN, a recently developed method, addresses this by using the diffusion process with a timestep-dependent discriminator. We investigate Diffusion-GAN and reveal that data scaling is a key component for stable learning and high-quality data generation. Building on our findings, we propose a learning algorithm, Scale-GAN, that uses data scaling and variance-based regularization. Furthermore, we theoretically prove that data scaling controls the bias-variance trade-off of the estimation error bound. As a theoretical extension, we consider GAN with invertible data augmentations. Comparative evaluations on benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in improving stability and accuracy.

  We study the generation process as a correlation machine'' We show that low frequencies emerge earlier in the generation process, where the denoising basis vectors are more aligned to the true data with a rate depending on their eigenvalues. This model allows us to show that the linear diffusion model converges in mean to the leading eigenvector of the underlying data, similarly to the prevalent power iteration method.

  We propose a family of informed correctors that more reliably counteracts discretization error by leveraging information learned by the model. We also propose $k$-Gillespie's, a sampling algorithm that better utilizes each model evaluation, while still enjoying the speed and flexibility of $tau$-leaping. Across several real and synthetic datasets, we show that $k$-Gillespie's with informed correctors reliably produces higher quality samples at lower computational cost.
