A new arXiv paper by Druv Pai, Dejan Stancevic, Yi Ma and Luca Ambrogioni derives information-theoretic scaling laws for diffusion model training. Introducing a tractable 'model information' measure of dependence on the training set, they identify two regimes — nonlinear memorization-to-generalization and linear-scaling generalization — and show induced scaling laws for memorization and sample quality extrapolate well beyond the fit domain. Paper and code are public.
