Trans-Dimensional Generative Modeling via Jump Diffusion Models

NeurIPS 2023spotlight

We propose a new class of generative model that naturally handles data of varying dimensionality by jointly modeling the state and dimension of each datapoint. The generative process is formulated as a jump diffusion process that makes jumps between different dimensional spaces. We first define a di…

Conditional Image Generation by Conditioning Variational Auto-Encoders

ICLR 2022poster

We present a conditional variational auto-encoder (VAE) which, to avoid the substantial cost of training from scratch, uses an architecture and training objective capable of leveraging a foundation model in the form of a pretrained unconditional VAE. To train the conditional VAE, we only need to tra…

Flexible Diffusion Modeling of Long Videos

NeurIPS 2022accept

We present a framework for video modeling based on denoising diffusion probabilistic models that produces long-duration video completions in a variety of realistic environments. We introduce a generative model that can at test-time sample any arbitrary subset of video frames conditioned on any other…

Structured Conditional Continuous Normalizing Flows for Efficient Amortized Inference in Graphical Models

AISTATS 2020poster

We exploit minimally faithful inversion of graphical model structures to specify sparse continuous normalizing flows (CNFs) for amortized inference. We find that the sparsity of this factorization can be exploited to reduce the numbers of parameters in the neural network, adaptive integration steps…
