Introduction to Stochastic Differential Equations for Generative Machine Learning: A Variational Perspective
arXiv:2606.31576v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The use of ordinary and stochastic differential equations has led to substantial progress in generative machine learning with applications to, for example, image, video and biomolecule generation. This paper provides a self-contained and informal introduction to the differential equations, the probabilistic framework for using them in generative modeling and the Fokker--Planck equation that governs the temporal evolution of the marginal distribution of the stochastic variables of the differential equations. The variational lower bound on the log-
