Reply to comment by Atom_101 in [D] Are GAN(s) still relevant as a research topic? or is there any idea regarding research on generative modeling? by aozorahime

There are models that use continuous DE's rather than discrete iterations, both with Diffusion-adjacent methods like SMLD/NCSN and distinct methods!

Just when I thought I understand the math behind DMs, they went ahead and added freaking DEs to it? Guess I should have paid more attention to math in college.

I'm really excited to see what the next few years bring. I've always felt like there's a lot of room for growth from higher level math, and it seems like that's beginning to happen.

I'll have a blog coming out soon on another physics-inspired model like DDPM, stay tuned!
