Diffusion models trained on a finite dataset first learn to generate novel, high-quality samples and only much later collapse onto their training set. We identify the mechanism behind this separation of timescales and the object that probes it. The training dynamics of the score function are governed---exactly, and at...

Score-based generative models generate new samples by integrating a time-dependent drift that carries Gaussian noise onto the target distribution. In practice this drift is modeled by a neural network, trained on a loss integrated over time $t$ with a weighting schedule $w(t)$. Along the backward dynamics, and for mult...

Overparameterization remains beneficial when paired with regularization: in the random-features theory and in U-Net experiments, optimally regularized large models---via a ridge penalty or early stopping, respectively---outperform any unregularized models.

It is found that τmem increases linearly with the training set size n, whereas τgen remains constant, which creates a growing window of training times with n where models generalize effectively, despite showing strong memorization if training continues beyond it.
