Diffusion Model: Classifier-Free Guidance Optimization

Objective

Improve text-to-image generation quality by designing a better classifier-free guidance formula. Your contribution should be a new way to combine noise_uc and noise_c (and optionally their history / derivatives) into a guided noise prediction — not a new numerical sampler.

The evaluation metric is FID (lower is better). CLIP score is logged for diagnostic purposes but is not part of the evaluation — a solution that improves CLIP at the cost of FID is a regression and will not be accepted.

Background

Classifier-free guidance (CFG) is a fundamental technique in diffusion models for text-guided generation. The standard CFG formula is:

noise_pred = noise_uc + cfg_guidance * (noise_c - noise_uc)

where noise_uc is the unconditional noise prediction and noise_c is the conditional (text-guided) noise prediction.

Standard CFG has known limitations:

  • Requires high guidance scales (typically 7.5-12.5)
  • Can cause mode collapse and saturation
  • Results in curved, unnatural sampling trajectories
  • Poor invertibility

Recent work (CFG++, Rescaled CFG, Perp-Neg, Interval CFG, Dynamic CFG, etc.) has shown that rethinking the guidance mechanism — while keeping the underlying sampler fixed — can substantially improve text-image alignment without regressing on sample quality.

Task

Redesign the guidance mechanism inside BaseDDIMCFGpp.sample() (SD v1.5) and BaseDDIMCFGpp.reverse_process() (SDXL). Your contribution must be a new way to compute the guided noise prediction from noise_uc and noise_c, not a new way to integrate the diffusion ODE.

Hard rules — read carefully

  1. The sampler stays DDIM. Every step must be a first-order DDIM update: one predict_noise call → Tweedie's formula → standard DDIM update rule (zt_next = alpha_next.sqrt() * z0t + (1 - alpha_next).sqrt() * noise_for_renoise). You may not:

    • switch to Euler / Heun / RK / DPM-Solver / DPM++ / UniPC / any higher-order or multistep numerical integrator
    • introduce history buffers of past denoised / noise_pred predictions to do polynomial extrapolation
    • add SDE Langevin noise terms
    • use adaptive step sizing This is not a sampler efficiency task — see cv-diffusion-efficiency if you want to design solvers.
  2. No image post-processing tricks. You may not apply dynamic thresholding, percentile clipping, amplitude clamping, momentum / EMA smoothing, or any per-sample normalization to z0t / zt. These change the output distribution but do not improve the guidance formula.

  3. Your contribution lives in the noise combination. Legal moves include (but are not limited to):

    • New functional forms for how noise_uc and noise_c are combined (e.g. rescaled CFG, perpendicular projection, std normalization)
    • Timestep-dependent guidance schedules (interval CFG,

   627      Novel guidance formula with exponential onset schedule:
   628      
   629      The key insight is that zeroinit's step-function zero-init (K=2) is
   630      suboptimal. Early timesteps should have gradually increasing guidance
   631      rather than an abrupt on/off switch. We use an exponential ramp:
   632      
   633        w(step) = cfg_guidance * (1 - exp(-step / tau))
   634      
   635      This provides a smooth transition from noise-only (step 0) to full
   636      guidance (later steps), avoiding the discontinuity of zeroinit while
   637      maintaining its
