CountsDiff: A Diffusion Model on the Natural Numbers for Generation and Imputation of Count-Based Data

Renzo G. Soatto, Anders Hoel, Greycen Ren +5

Diffusion models have excelled at generative tasks for both continuous and token-based domains, but their application to discrete ordinal data remains underdeveloped. We present Co…

Online Reasoning Calibration: Test-Time Training Enables Generalizable Conformal LLM Reasoning

Cai Zhou, Zekai Wang, Menghua Wu +6

While test-time scaling has enabled large language models to solve highly difficult tasks, state-of-the-art results come at exorbitant compute costs. These inefficiencies can be at…

Rethinking Diffusion Models with Symmetries through Canonicalization with Applications to Molecular Graph Generation

Cai Zhou, Zijie Chen, Zian Li +7

Many generative tasks in chemistry and science involve distributions invariant to group symmetries (e.g., permutation and rotation). A common strategy enforces invariance and equiv…

Learning Diffusion Models with Flexible Representation Guidance

Chenyu Wang, Cai Zhou, Sharut Gupta +4

Diffusion models can be improved with additional guidance towards more effective representations of input. Indeed, prior empirical work has already shown that aligning internal rep…

Thought calibration: Efficient and confident test-time scaling

Menghua Wu, Cai Zhou, Stephen Bates +1

Reasoning large language models achieve impressive test-time scaling by thinking for longer, but this performance gain comes at significant compute cost. Directly limiting test-tim…
