Diversify Diffusion with Temperature Sampling and Variance-Corrective Time Shifting

Diffusion models faithfully reproduce their training distribution, but also inherit its imbalances and leave rare or under-represented modes hard to reach. A natural inference-time remedy is to sample from the high-temperature target $p^{(γ)}_0(x) \propto p_0(x)^γ$ for $0 < γ< 1$, which flattens dominant modes and lifts rare ones. However, naive score scaling while correctly reweighting modes also inflates the per-mode variance, breaking the reverse diffusion process and degrading sample…
