Measurement-Consistent Langevin Corrector for Stabilizing Latent Diffusion Inverse Problem Solvers

arXiv:2601.04791v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While latent diffusion models (LDMs) have emerged as powerful priors for inverse problems, existing LDM-based solvers frequently suffer from instability. In this work, we first identify the instability as a discrepancy between the solver dynamics and stable reverse diffusion dynamics learned by the diffusion model, and show that reducing this gap stabilizes the solver. Building on this, we introduce \textit{Measurement-Consistent Langevin Corrector (MCLC)}, a theoretically grounded plug-and-play stabilization module that remedies the LD
