Beyond Pairwise Preferences: Listwise Reward-Aware Alignment for Diffusion Models

Austin Wang, Jiaqi Han, Stefano Ermon +1

Preference optimization has emerged as an efficient alternative to online reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) for aligning text-to-image diffusion models. However, ex…
