Classifier-Free Guidance Is a Predictor-Corrector
This paper was accepted at the Mathematics of Modern Machine Learning (M3L) Workshop at NeurIPS 2024. We investigate the unreasonable effectiveness of classifier-free guidance (CFG). CFG is the dominant method of conditional sampling for text-to-image diffusion models, yet unlike other aspects of diffusion, it remains on shaky theoretical footing. In this paper, we disprove common …
