A Sampler’s Blog
This space explores sequential sampling techniques with a focus on their applications in guiding diffusion models, vision-language models, and financial market simulations.
Diffusion Models – Improving the transport efficiency for diffusion generations.
Sequential Sampling – Inference-time steering for diffusion and vision-language models.
Market Simulation – Denosing-diffusion market simulators for hedging and risk control.
