Background
- Denoising Diffusion Models
- Forward Process
- : number of steps
- : Gaussian transition kernel, gradually adds noise to the input with a variance schedule
- The are chosen such that the chain approximately converges to a standard Gaussian distribution after steps,
- Property: sampling at an arbitrary timestep in closed form(, ):
- DDMs
DDMs learn a parametrized reverse process(model parameter ) that inverts the forward diffusion:
- NLL(Negative log likelihood)
- Directly tracing

Diffusion models and denoising antoencoders
Hierarchical Latent Point Diffusion Models(LION)
Loss Function
- : often set to 1 (constant)
- After training:
H-VAE Configuration
- Point Clouds
- Global shape latent
- Point cloud-structured latent
- : a latent point cloud consisting of points with xyz-coordinates in
