Text-to-image diffusion models have been shown to suffer from sample-level memorization, possibly reproducing near-perfect replica of images that they are trained on, which may be undesirable. To remedy this issue, we develop the first…

In this paper, we present a method for denoising and reconstruction of low-dimensional manifold in high-dimensional space. We suggest a multidimensional extension of the Locally Optimal Projection algorithm which was introduced by Lipman et…
