A Posterior-Dynamics Framework for Imaging Inverse Problems with Pretrained Diffusion Priors
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.15144v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Pretrained diffusion models represent image distributions through a continuum of progressively smoothed distributions. This multiscale structure organizes generation from global structure to fine detail and supports high-quality, diverse samples. We exploit the same multiscale diffusion prior for linear imaging inverse problems. Rather than using the pretrained model only as a denoiser in an outer iteration, we define a surrogate likelihood whose center is aligned with the clean-image coordinate and whose covariance accounts for residua
