Variance-Aware Adaptive Weighting for Diffusion Model Training

Diffusion models have recently achieved remarkable success in generative modeling, yet their training dynamics across different noise levels remain highly imbalanced, which can lead to inefficient optimization and unstable learning behavior. In this work, we investigate this imbalance from the perspective of loss variance across log-SNR levels and propose a variance-aware adaptive weighting strategy to address it. The proposed approach dynamically adjusts training weights based on the observed variance distribution, encouraging a more balanced optimization process across noise levels. Extensive experiments on CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100 demonstrate that the proposed method consistently improve...
