Fractals made Practical: Denoising Diffusion as Partitioned Iterated Function Systems

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2603.13069v1 Announce Type: new What is a diffusion model actually doing when it turns noise into a photograph? We show that the deterministic DDIM reverse chain operates as a Partitioned Iterated Function System (PIFS) and that this framework serves as a unified design language for denoising diffusion model schedules, architectures, and
