We propose a Monte Carlo sampler from the reverse diffusion process. Unlike the practice of diffusion models, where the intermediary updates -- the score functions -- are learned with a neural network, we transform the score matching…

Consider a lossy compression system with $\ell$ distributed encoders and a centralized decoder. Each encoder compresses its observed source and forwards the compressed data to the decoder for joint reconstruction of the target signals under…

We consider a denoiser that reconstructs a stationary ergodic source by lossily compressing samples of the source observed through a memoryless noisy channel. Prior work on compression-based denoising has been limited to additive noise…
