Notice: This website is continuously updated as new conference proceedings and journal volumes are published. Consequently, the figures presented here may differ from those reported in our publications.


A brief overview of our methodology is provided on the Methods page, along with references to publications documenting our approach and links to the code and data used in each study.


The reproducibility variables underlying each score are classified using an automated LLM-based pipeline, validated against a manually labeled dataset. LLM-based classification introduces uncertainty and potential bias; scores should be interpreted as estimates.

Reproducibility Variable Result LLM Response
Research Type Theoretical In this work, we focus on understanding the sample complexity of training such a model; how many samples are needed to learn an accurate diffusion model using a sufficiently expressive neural network? Prior work [BMR20] showed bounds polynomial in the dimension, desired Total Variation error, and Wasserstein error. We show an exponential improvement in the dependence on Wasserstein error and depth, along with improved dependencies on other relevant parameters.

Pseudocode Yes Algorithm 1 Empirical score estimation for s
Open Source Code No We do not have any experiments. We have a small simulation that is just a illustration of a lower bound, which is very small in scope.
Open Datasets No The paper refers to training with "m i.i.d. samples xi q0" from an abstract distribution q0, but does not specify any named public datasets or provide access information for specific data used in experiments.
Dataset Splits No The paper does not conduct empirical studies with specific datasets, therefore, it does not specify any training/test/validation dataset splits.
Hardware Specification No The paper focuses on theoretical analysis and does not describe any specific hardware used for running experiments.
Software Dependencies No The paper is theoretical and does not specify software dependencies with version numbers used for experiments.
Experiment Setup No The paper focuses on theoretical analysis and does not include details about an experimental setup, hyperparameters, or system-level training settings.
