Breakdown of Local Denoising as Semantic Speciation

Guangkuo Liu, Mert Okyay, Yifan F. Zhang +3

The dynamics of generative models exhibit two apparently distinct temporal windows: a speciation window, in which a sample commits to a semantic class, and a nonlocality window, in…

Concurrence of Symmetry Breaking and Nonlocality Phase Transitions in Diffusion Models

Yifan F. Zhang, Fangjun Hu, Guangkuo Liu +2

Diffusion models undergo a phase transition in a critical time window during generation dynamics, with two complementary diagnoses of criticality. The symmetry breaking picture vie…

Generalization Error in Quantum Machine Learning in the Presence of Sampling Noise

Fangjun Hu, Xun Gao

Tackling output sampling noise due to finite shots of quantum measurement is an unavoidable challenge when extracting information in machine learning with physical systems. A techn…
