Exploiting the Signal-Leak Bias in Diffusion Models

Sabine Süsstrunk, Radhakrishna Achanta, Mahmut Sami Arpa, Athanasios Fitsios, Martin Nicolas Everaert

There is a bias in the inference pipeline of most diffusion models. This bias arises from a signal leak whose distribution deviates from the noise distribution, creating a discrepancy between training and inference processes. We demonstrate that this signa ...
