In this paper, we learn a diffusion model to generate 3D data on a scene-scale. Specifically, our model crafts a 3D scene consisting of multiple objects, while recent diffusion research has focused on a single object. To realize our goal, we represent a scene with discrete class labels, i.e., categorical distribution, to assign multiple objects into semantic categories. Thus, we extend discrete diffusion models to learn scene-scale categorical distributions. In addition, we validate that a latent diffusion model can reduce computation costs for training and deploying. To the best of our knowledge, our work is the first to apply discrete and latent diffusion for 3D categorical data on a scene-scale. We further propose to perform semantic scene completion (SSC) by learning a conditional distribution using our diffusion model, where the condition is a partial observation in a sparse point cloud. In experiments, we empirically show that our diffusion models not only generate reasonable scenes, but also perform the scene completion task better than a discriminative model.

作为生成部件作为自回归模型的向量量化变形式自动化器（VQ-VAE）的集成在图像生成上产生了高质量的结果。但是，自回归模型将严格遵循采样阶段的逐步扫描顺序。这导致现有的VQ系列模型几乎不会逃避缺乏全球信息的陷阱。连续域中的去噪扩散概率模型（DDPM）显示了捕获全局背景的能力，同时产生高质量图像。在离散状态空间中，一些作品已经证明了执行文本生成和低分辨率图像生成的可能性。我们认为，在VQ-VAE的富含内容的离散视觉码本的帮助下，离散扩散模型还可以利用全局上下文产生高保真图像，这补偿了沿像素空间的经典自回归模型的缺陷。同时，离散VAE与扩散模型的集成解决了传统的自回归模型的缺点是超大的，以及在生成图像时需要在采样过程中的过度时间的扩散模型。结果发现所生成的图像的质量严重依赖于离散的视觉码本。广泛的实验表明，所提出的矢量量化离散扩散模型（VQ-DDM）能够实现与低复杂性的顶层方法的相当性能。它还展示了在没有额外培训的图像修复任务方面与自回归模型量化的其他矢量突出的优势。

Generative models, as an important family of statistical modeling, target learning the observed data distribution via generating new instances. Along with the rise of neural networks, deep generative models, such as variational autoencoders (VAEs) and generative adversarial network (GANs), have made tremendous progress in 2D image synthesis. Recently, researchers switch their attentions from the 2D space to the 3D space considering that 3D data better aligns with our physical world and hence enjoys great potential in practice. However, unlike a 2D image, which owns an efficient representation (i.e., pixel grid) by nature, representing 3D data could face far more challenges. Concretely, we would expect an ideal 3D representation to be capable enough to model shapes and appearances in details, and to be highly efficient so as to model high-resolution data with fast speed and low memory cost. However, existing 3D representations, such as point clouds, meshes, and recent neural fields, usually fail to meet the above requirements simultaneously. In this survey, we make a thorough review of the development of 3D generation, including 3D shape generation and 3D-aware image synthesis, from the perspectives of both algorithms and more importantly representations. We hope that our discussion could help the community track the evolution of this field and further spark some innovative ideas to advance this challenging task.

我们介绍了文本到图像生成的矢量量化扩散（VQ-扩散）模型。该方法基于矢量量化变分性AutoEncoder（VQ-VAE），其潜像通过最近开发的去噪扩散概率（DDPM）的条件变体为基础。我们发现这种潜在空间方法非常适合于图像到图像生成任务，因为它不仅消除了具有现有方法的单向偏差，还允许我们结合掩模和更换的扩散策略，以避免积累错误，这是现有方法的严重问题。我们的实验表明，与具有类似数量的参数数量的传统自回归（AR）模型相比，VQ扩散产生明显更好的文本到图像生成结果。与以前的基于GAN的文本到图像方法相比，我们的VQ扩散可以通过大边缘处理更复杂的场景并提高合成的图像质量。最后，我们表明我们的方法中的图像生成计算可以通过Reparameter化进行高效。利用传统的AR方法，文本到图像生成时间随输出图像分辨率线性增加，因此即使对于正常尺寸图像也是相当耗时的。 VQ-扩散使我们能够在质量和速度之间实现更好的权衡。我们的实验表明，具有Reparameterization的VQ扩散模型比传统的AR方法快15倍，同时实现更好的图像质量。

In this work, we present a novel framework built to simplify 3D asset generation for amateur users. To enable interactive generation, our method supports a variety of input modalities that can be easily provided by a human, including images, text, partially observed shapes and combinations of these, further allowing to adjust the strength of each input. At the core of our approach is an encoder-decoder, compressing 3D shapes into a compact latent representation, upon which a diffusion model is learned. To enable a variety of multi-modal inputs, we employ task-specific encoders with dropout followed by a cross-attention mechanism. Due to its flexibility, our model naturally supports a variety of tasks, outperforming prior works on shape completion, image-based 3D reconstruction, and text-to-3D. Most interestingly, our model can combine all these tasks into one swiss-army-knife tool, enabling the user to perform shape generation using incomplete shapes, images, and textual descriptions at the same time, providing the relative weights for each input and facilitating interactivity. Despite our approach being shape-only, we further show an efficient method to texture the generated shape using large-scale text-to-image models.

虽然扩散概率模型可以产生高质量的图像内容，但仍然存在高分辨率图像的关键限制及其相关的高计算要求。最近的矢量量化图像模型已经克服了图像分辨率的这种限制，而是通过从之前的元素 - 明智的自回归采样生成令牌时，这是对图像分辨率的速度和单向的。相比之下，在本文中，我们提出了一种新的离散扩散概率模型，其通过使用无约束的变压器架构作为骨干来支持矢量量化令牌的并行预测。在培训期间，令牌以订单不可知的方式随机掩盖，变压器学会预测原始令牌。这种矢量量化令牌预测的并行性反过来促进了在计算费用的一小部分下的全球一致的高分辨率和多样性图像的无条件生成。以这种方式，我们可以产生超过原始训练集样本的图像分辨率，而另外提供每个图像似然估计（从生成的对抗方法的差点）。我们的方法在密度方面实现了最先进的结果（Lsun卧室：1.51; Lsun Churches：1.12; FFHQ：1.20）和覆盖范围（Lsun卧室：0.83; Lsun Churches：0.73; FFHQ：0.80），并执行竞争对手（LSUN卧室：3.64; LSUN教堂：4.07; FFHQ：6.11）在计算和减少训练套件要求方面提供优势。

Diffusion models have emerged as the state-of-the-art for image generation, among other tasks. Here, we present an efficient diffusion-based model for 3D-aware generation of neural fields. Our approach pre-processes training data, such as ShapeNet meshes, by converting them to continuous occupancy fields and factoring them into a set of axis-aligned triplane feature representations. Thus, our 3D training scenes are all represented by 2D feature planes, and we can directly train existing 2D diffusion models on these representations to generate 3D neural fields with high quality and diversity, outperforming alternative approaches to 3D-aware generation. Our approach requires essential modifications to existing triplane factorization pipelines to make the resulting features easy to learn for the diffusion model. We demonstrate state-of-the-art results on 3D generation on several object classes from ShapeNet.

DeNoising扩散模型代表了计算机视觉中最新的主题，在生成建模领域表现出了显着的结果。扩散模型是一个基于两个阶段的深层生成模型，一个正向扩散阶段和反向扩散阶段。在正向扩散阶段，通过添加高斯噪声，输入数据在几个步骤中逐渐受到干扰。在反向阶段，模型的任务是通过学习逐步逆转扩散过程来恢复原始输入数据。尽管已知的计算负担，即由于采样过程中涉及的步骤数量，扩散模型对生成样品的质量和多样性得到了广泛赞赏。在这项调查中，我们对视觉中应用的denoising扩散模型的文章进行了全面综述，包括该领域的理论和实际贡献。首先，我们识别并介绍了三个通用扩散建模框架，这些框架基于扩散概率模型，噪声调节得分网络和随机微分方程。我们进一步讨论了扩散模型与其他深层生成模型之间的关系，包括变异自动编码器，生成对抗网络，基于能量的模型，自回归模型和正常流量。然后，我们介绍了计算机视觉中应用的扩散模型的多角度分类。最后，我们说明了扩散模型的当前局限性，并设想了一些有趣的未来研究方向。

Diffusion models have shown great promise for image generation, beating GANs in terms of generation diversity, with comparable image quality. However, their application to 3D shapes has been limited to point or voxel representations that can in practice not accurately represent a 3D surface. We propose a diffusion model for neural implicit representations of 3D shapes that operates in the latent space of an auto-decoder. This allows us to generate diverse and high quality 3D surfaces. We additionally show that we can condition our model on images or text to enable image-to-3D generation and text-to-3D generation using CLIP embeddings. Furthermore, adding noise to the latent codes of existing shapes allows us to explore shape variations.

We introduce DiffRF, a novel approach for 3D radiance field synthesis based on denoising diffusion probabilistic models. While existing diffusion-based methods operate on images, latent codes, or point cloud data, we are the first to directly generate volumetric radiance fields. To this end, we propose a 3D denoising model which directly operates on an explicit voxel grid representation. However, as radiance fields generated from a set of posed images can be ambiguous and contain artifacts, obtaining ground truth radiance field samples is non-trivial. We address this challenge by pairing the denoising formulation with a rendering loss, enabling our model to learn a deviated prior that favours good image quality instead of trying to replicate fitting errors like floating artifacts. In contrast to 2D-diffusion models, our model learns multi-view consistent priors, enabling free-view synthesis and accurate shape generation. Compared to 3D GANs, our diffusion-based approach naturally enables conditional generation such as masked completion or single-view 3D synthesis at inference time.

扩散模型（DMS）显示出高质量图像合成的巨大潜力。但是，当涉及到具有复杂场景的图像时，如何正确描述图像全局结构和对象细节仍然是一项具有挑战性的任务。在本文中，我们提出了弗里多（Frido），这是一种特征金字塔扩散模型，该模型执行了图像合成的多尺度粗到1个降解过程。我们的模型将输入图像分解为依赖比例的矢量量化特征，然后是用于产生图像输出的粗到细门。在上述多尺度表示阶段，可以进一步利用文本，场景图或图像布局等其他输入条件。因此，还可以将弗里多应用于条件或跨模式图像合成。我们对各种无条件和有条件的图像生成任务进行了广泛的实验，从文本到图像综合，布局到图像，场景环形图像到标签形象。更具体地说，我们在五个基准测试中获得了最先进的FID分数，即可可和开阔图像的布局到图像，可可和视觉基因组的场景环形图像以及可可的标签对图像图像。 。代码可在https://github.com/davidhalladay/frido上找到。

产生人类想要的声音效果是一个重要的话题。但是，在这一领域，很少有研究声音发电。在这项研究中，我们调查了以文本提示为条件的声音，并提出了一个新型的文本对生成框架，该框架由文本编码器组成，矢量量化了变异自动编码器（VQ-VAE），解码器和歌手。该框架首先使用解码器将从文本编码器提取的文本特征传递到借助VQ-VAE的MEL光谱图中，然后使用Vocoder将生成的MEL光谱图转换为波形。我们发现，解码器显着影响发电性能。因此，我们专注于在这项研究中设计一个好的解码器。我们从传统的自动回解码器开始，该解码器已被证明是以前的Sound Generation Works中的最先进方法。但是，AR解码器始终按顺序预测MEL-SPECTROGIN图令牌，这引入了单向偏见和错误问题的积累。此外，使用AR解码器，声音生成时间随着声音持续时间线性增加。为了克服AR解码器引入的缺点，我们提出了一个基于离散扩散模型的非自动回形解码器，称为DiffSound。具体而言，DIFFSOUND可以在一个步骤中预测所有MEL光谱图令牌，然后在下一步中完善预测的令牌，因此可以在几个步骤后获得最优于预测的结果。我们的实验表明，与AR解码器相比，我们提出的差异不仅产生更好的文本到单一生成结果，而且还具有更快的生成速度，例如MOS：3.56 \ textit {v.s} 2.786，并且生成速度为五个比AR解码器快的时间。

We propose a novel method for 3D shape completion from a partial observation of a point cloud. Existing methods either operate on a global latent code, which limits the expressiveness of their model, or autoregressively estimate the local features, which is highly computationally extensive. Instead, our method estimates the entire local feature field by a single feedforward network by formulating this problem as a tensor completion problem on the feature volume of the object. Due to the redundancy of local feature volumes, this tensor completion problem can be further reduced to estimating the canonical factors of the feature volume. A hierarchical variational autoencoder (VAE) with tiny MLPs is used to probabilistically estimate the canonical factors of the complete feature volume. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated by comparing it with the state-of-the-art method quantitatively and qualitatively. Further ablation studies also show the need to adopt a hierarchical architecture to capture the multimodal distribution of possible shapes.

Semantic segmentation from aerial views is a vital task for autonomous drones as they require precise and accurate segmentation to traverse safely and efficiently. Segmenting images from aerial views is especially challenging as they include diverse view-points, extreme scale variation and high scene complexity. To address this problem, we propose an end-to-end multi-class semantic segmentation diffusion model. We introduce recursive denoising which allows predicted error to propagate through the denoising process. In addition, we combine this with a hierarchical multi-scale approach, complementary to the diffusion process. Our method achieves state-of-the-art results on UAVid and on the Vaihingen building segmentation benchmark.

With the rising industrial attention to 3D virtual modeling technology, generating novel 3D content based on specified conditions (e.g. text) has become a hot issue. In this paper, we propose a new generative 3D modeling framework called Diffusion-SDF for the challenging task of text-to-shape synthesis. Previous approaches lack flexibility in both 3D data representation and shape generation, thereby failing to generate highly diversified 3D shapes conforming to the given text descriptions. To address this, we propose a SDF autoencoder together with the Voxelized Diffusion model to learn and generate representations for voxelized signed distance fields (SDFs) of 3D shapes. Specifically, we design a novel UinU-Net architecture that implants a local-focused inner network inside the standard U-Net architecture, which enables better reconstruction of patch-independent SDF representations. We extend our approach to further text-to-shape tasks including text-conditioned shape completion and manipulation. Experimental results show that Diffusion-SDF is capable of generating both high-quality and highly diversified 3D shapes that conform well to the given text descriptions. Diffusion-SDF has demonstrated its superiority compared to previous state-of-the-art text-to-shape approaches.

扩散模型是一类深入生成模型，在具有密集理论建立的各种任务上显示出令人印象深刻的结果。尽管与其他最先进的模型相比，扩散模型的样本合成质量和多样性令人印象深刻，但它们仍然遭受了昂贵的抽样程序和次优可能的估计。最近的研究表明，对提高扩散模型的性能的热情非常热情。在本文中，我们对扩散模型的现有变体进行了首次全面综述。具体而言，我们提供了扩散模型的第一个分类法，并将它们分类为三种类型，即采样加速增强，可能性最大化的增强和数据将来增强。我们还详细介绍了其他五个生成模型（即变异自动编码器，生成对抗网络，正常流量，自动回归模型和基于能量的模型），并阐明扩散模型与这些生成模型之间的连接。然后，我们对扩散模型的应用进行彻底研究，包括计算机视觉，自然语言处理，波形信号处理，多模式建模，分子图生成，时间序列建模和对抗性纯化。此外，我们提出了与这种生成模型的发展有关的新观点。

深度学习表现出巨大的生成任务潜力。生成模型是可以根据某些隐含参数随机生成观测值的模型类。最近，扩散模型由于其发电能力而成为一类生成模型。如今，已经取得了巨大的成就。除了计算机视觉，语音产生，生物信息学和自然语言处理外，还需要在该领域探索更多应用。但是，扩散模型具有缓慢生成过程的自然缺点，从而导致许多增强的作品。该调查总结了扩散模型的领域。我们首先说明了两项具有里程碑意义的作品的主要问题-DDPM和DSM。然后，我们提供各种高级技术，以加快扩散模型 - 训练时间表，无训练采样，混合模型以及得分和扩散统一。关于现有模型，我们还根据特定的NFE提供了FID得分的基准和NLL。此外，引入了带有扩散模型的应用程序，包括计算机视觉，序列建模，音频和科学AI。最后，该领域以及局限性和进一步的方向都进行了摘要。

In recent years, generative models have undergone significant advancement due to the success of diffusion models. The success of these models is often attributed to their use of guidance techniques, such as classifier and classifier-free methods, which provides effective mechanisms to trade-off between fidelity and diversity. However, these methods are not capable of guiding a generated image to be aware of its geometric configuration, e.g., depth, which hinders the application of diffusion models to areas that require a certain level of depth awareness. To address this limitation, we propose a novel guidance approach for diffusion models that uses estimated depth information derived from the rich intermediate representations of diffusion models. To do this, we first present a label-efficient depth estimation framework using the internal representations of diffusion models. At the sampling phase, we utilize two guidance techniques to self-condition the generated image using the estimated depth map, the first of which uses pseudo-labeling, and the subsequent one uses a depth-domain diffusion prior. Experiments and extensive ablation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in guiding the diffusion models toward geometrically plausible image generation.

We address the challenge of recovering an underlying scene geometry and colors from a sparse set of RGBD view observations. In this work, we present a new solution that sequentially generates novel RGBD views along a camera trajectory, and the scene geometry is simply the fusion result of these views. More specifically, we maintain an intermediate surface mesh used for rendering new RGBD views, which subsequently becomes complete by an inpainting network; each rendered RGBD view is later back-projected as a partial surface and is supplemented into the intermediate mesh. The use of intermediate mesh and camera projection helps solve the refractory problem of multi-view inconsistency. We practically implement the RGBD inpainting network as a versatile RGBD diffusion model, which is previously used for 2D generative modeling; we make a modification to its reverse diffusion process to enable our use. We evaluate our approach on the task of 3D scene synthesis from sparse RGBD inputs; extensive experiments on the ScanNet dataset demonstrate the superiority of our approach over existing ones.

通过将图像形成过程分解成逐个申请的去噪自身额，扩散模型（DMS）实现了最先进的合成导致图像数据和超越。另外，它们的配方允许引导机构来控制图像生成过程而不会再刷新。然而，由于这些模型通常在像素空间中直接操作，因此强大的DMS的优化通常消耗数百个GPU天，并且由于顺序评估，推理是昂贵的。为了在保留其质量和灵活性的同时启用有限计算资源的DM培训，我们将它们应用于强大的佩带自动化器的潜在空间。与以前的工作相比，这种代表上的培训扩散模型允许第一次达到复杂性降低和细节保存之间的近乎最佳点，极大地提高了视觉保真度。通过将跨关注层引入模型架构中，我们将扩散模型转化为强大而柔性的发电机，以进行诸如文本或边界盒和高分辨率合成的通用调节输入，以卷积方式变得可以实现。我们的潜在扩散模型（LDMS）实现了一种新的技术状态，可在各种任务中进行图像修复和高竞争性能，包括无条件图像生成，语义场景合成和超级分辨率，同时与基于像素的DMS相比显着降低计算要求。代码可在https://github.com/compvis/lattent-diffusion获得。
