Understanding Diffusion Model Through First Principles of Probability
Published:
Are you eager to understand the mathematics behind diffusion models from a probabilistic perspective? Do you find it tiresome navigating mulitple references for the derivations? If so, you've come to the right place. In this article, I aim to explain Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM) by deriving the equations from the first principles of probability. For brevity, I will simply refer to the DDPM research paper as the 'paper'.
