When Diffusion Model Can Ignore Dimension: An Entropy-Based Theory
arXiv CS.LG
•
ArXi:2605.07969v1 Announce Type: new Diffusion models perform remarkably well on high-dimensional data such as images, often using only a modest number of reverse-time steps. Despite this practical success, existing convergence theory does not fully explain why such samplers remain efficient in high dimensions. Many prior KL guarantees bound the discretization error in terms of the ambient dimension, while other improved results replace this dependence using intrinsic-dimensional or geometric structure assumptions.
