How Compositional Generalization and Creativity Improve as Diffusion Models are Trained

Alessandro Favero, Antonio Sclocchi, Francesco Cagnetta +2

Natural data is often organized as a hierarchical composition of features. How many samples do generative models need in order to learn the composition rules, so as to produce a co…

Probing the Latent Hierarchical Structure of Data via Diffusion Models

Antonio Sclocchi, Alessandro Favero, Noam Itzhak Levi +1

High-dimensional data must be highly structured to be learnable. Although the compositional and hierarchical nature of data is often put forward to explain learnability, quantitati…
