The Impact of VAE Design on Latent Pose Representations for Diffusion-based Sign Language Production

Researchers investigate how variational autoencoder (VAE) design choices affect latent space properties in sign language production systems using diffusion models. Testing on the Phoenix14T dataset reveals that downstream generative performance correlates more strongly with latent space structure than with traditional reconstruction metrics, suggesting current evaluation methods may miss critical factors influencing model quality.

MMD Guidance: Training-Free Distribution Adaptation for Diffusion Models via Maximum Mean Discrepancy Guidance

Researchers propose MMD Guidance, a training-free method that uses Maximum Mean Discrepancy to align pre-trained diffusion models with target data distributions during inference. The technique enables domain adaptation without retraining, working efficiently in both standard and latent diffusion models while maintaining sample quality.

What are Diffusion Models?

Diffusion models are a new type of generative AI model that can learn complex data distributions and generate high-quality images competitive with state-of-the-art GANs. The article covers recent developments including classifier-free guidance, GLIDE, unCLIP, Imagen, latent diffusion models, and consistency models.
