SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Pitch Perfect: How to Effectively Network and Build a Strong Pitch (for Graduate Students)
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in learning how to effectively connect with colleagues and prospective employers? Do you want to learn how to discuss your research to those outside of your field? If so\, this integrative workshop will help you to develop a strong pitch that can be used in networking opportunities. Come and a) learn about the process of networking\, b) develop and practice your pitch\, c) reflect on when (and when not) to bring your research up in your pitch\, and d) understand University Career Center networking and career development resources. Brought to you by the University Career Center\, in partnership with Rackham Graduate School.\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Theory and Methods for Conditional Diffusion Models
DESCRIPTION:will study conditional sampling with diffusion models under linear constraints\, with a focus on understanding how a pre-trained unconditional diffusion model can be used to sample from a conditional distribution. I will present a normal–tangent decomposition of the conditional score that separates the effect of the observed constraints from the remaining uncertainty in the distribution. This decomposition provides a way to characterize the discrepancy between the unconditional and conditional diffusion dynamics\, and to relate this discrepancy to information-theoretic quantities.\n\nBased on this perspective\, I will introduce a sampling method that combines projected Langevin initialization on the constraint set with guided reverse diffusion. I will discuss theoretical and information-theoretic guarantees for the resulting sampler\, as well as numerical results illustrating its behavior on linear inverse problems. At the end\, I will also briefly discuss related results showing how the information content and structural properties of a target distribution can reduce the dependence of diffusion sampling on the ambient dimension.
