In usual diffusion, the concentration profile, starting from an initial distribution showing sharp features, first gets smooth and then converges to a Gaussian. By considering several examples, we show that the art of convergence to a…

Denoising diffusion models have become ubiquitous for generative modeling. The core idea is to transport the data distribution to a Gaussian by using a diffusion. Approximate samples from the data distribution are then obtained by…
