ResearchScore smoothing during training explains diffusion models' tendency to interpolateA paper presented at ICLR 2026 argues that the apparent "creativity" of diffusion models—their ability to produce novel images or molecular structures—follows from how neural-network training smooths the learned score function.4 min read
