• Title: There and Back Again: On the relation between noises, images, and their inversions in diffusion models
• Authors: Łukasz Staniszewski, Łukasz Kuciński, Kamil Deja,
• Abstract summary: Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPMs) achieve state-of-the-art performance in synthesizing new images from random noise. Recent DDPM-based editing techniques try to mitigate this issue by inverting images back to their approximated staring noise. We study the relation between the initial Gaussian noise, the samples generated from it, and their corresponding latent encodings obtained through the inversion procedure.

• Abstract: Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPMs) achieve state-of-the-art performance in synthesizing new images from random noise, but they lack meaningful latent space that encodes data into features. Recent DDPM-based editing techniques try to mitigate this issue by inverting images back to their approximated staring noise. In this work, we study the relation between the initial Gaussian noise, the samples generated from it, and their corresponding latent encodings obtained through the inversion procedure. First, we interpret their spatial distance relations to show the inaccuracy of the DDIM inversion technique by localizing latent representations manifold between the initial noise and generated samples. Then, we demonstrate the peculiar relation between initial Gaussian noise and its corresponding generations during diffusion training, showing that the high-level features of generated images stabilize rapidly, keeping the spatial distance relationship between noises and generations consistent throughout the training.

• PartDiff: Image Super-resolution with Partial Diffusion Models [3.8435187580887717]
  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.

• A Variational Perspective on Solving Inverse Problems with Diffusion Models [101.831766524264]
  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.
