The paper proposes a novel family of bespoke ODE solvers, called AdjointDEIS, to optimize the latents and parameters of diffusion models with respect to differentiable metrics. This is achieved by solving continuous adjoint equations using exponential integrators, which simplify to a simple ODE for diffusion SDEs. The proposed method addresses memory-intensive issues in naive backpropagation techniques and provides convergence order guarantees. AdjointDEIS is demonstrated to be effective in guided generation tasks, such as face morphing, with adversarial attacks.

The paper solves a big problem in computer science called “optimization” using special formulas for “diffusion models”. These formulas are like recipes that allow computers to make new and interesting things, like fake faces. The researchers created a new way to solve these recipes quickly and efficiently, which is important because it will help computers generate even more realistic fake images.
