The paper proposes a training-free acceleration algorithm for SDE-style diffusion samplers, based on the stochastic Runge-Kutta method, which provably attains ^2 error using O(d^{3/2} / ) score function evaluations. The algorithm strengthens state-of-the-art guarantees in terms of dimensional dependency and outperforms existing methods like DDPM. The proposed sampler can be used for various generative modeling tasks, including image generation, with potential applications in areas like computer vision and graphics.

Diffusion models are important for creating new images, videos, or audio files that look real. These models are really good at making things look realistic, but they often take a long time to make these new creations. The researchers found a way to speed up this process without having to retrain the model, which is exciting because it could lead to even more realistic and creative results.
