Covariance-aware sampling for Diffusion Models
May 15, 2026arXiv Statistics — Machine Learning
Event Summary
arXiv:2605.13910v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present a covariance-aware sampler that improves the quality of pixel-space Diffusion Model (DM) sampling in the few-step regime. We hypothesize that in the few-step regime samplers fail because they rely solely on the predicted mean of the reverse
