The pith

Generative diffusion priors for inverse problems in imaging are not universally stable and can underperform compared to optimization-based methods in imperfect settings.

A machine-rendered reading of the paper's core claim, the machinery that carries it, and where it could break.

This paper numerically evaluates the stability of generative priors, specifically diffusion-based ones, when solving inverse problems in imaging. Stability here includes whether the method converges as regularization strengthens, its performance on data outside the training distribution, and its sensitivity to errors in the imaging model or noise assumptions. By benchmarking against variational optimization methods, the work shows in which scenarios the generative approaches achieve high-quality reconstructions and where they may produce unreliable results. This matters for applications in science and medicine where reconstructions must be trustworthy even when conditions deviate from ideal.

Core claim

The central discovery is that while generative priors can provide state-of-the-art reconstructions in some settings, they fall short or become problematic in others, particularly regarding robustness to out-of-distribution data and inaccuracies in the forward operator or noise model, as revealed through numerical tests of convergent regularization and related properties.

What carries the argument

A set of numerical stability tests covering convergent regularization, out-of-distribution robustness, and robustness to forward operator or noise model inaccuracies, used to compare generative regularizers against variational methods.

Load-bearing premise

The chosen numerical test cases and metrics are representative of the imperfect conditions in actual scientific and medical imaging applications.

What would settle it

A finding that generative priors consistently outperform variational methods and remain stable across all tested conditions of out-of-distribution data and model inaccuracies would contradict the paper's conclusion that they can fall short or be problematic in certain settings.

read the original abstract

Generative (diffusion) priors demonstrate remarkable performance in addressing inverse problems in imaging. Yet, for scientific and medical imaging, it is crucial that reconstruction techniques remain stable and reliable under imperfect settings. Typical definitions of stability encompass the notion of ''convergent regularization'', robustness to out-of-distribution data, and to inaccuracies in the forward operator or noise model. We evaluate these properties numerically. Furthermore, we benchmark generative approaches against modern optimization-based methods inspired by the widely used variational techniques. Our results give insights for which settings and applications generative priors can deliver state-of-the-art reconstructions, and on those in which they fall short or may even be problematic.

Referee Report

3 major / 3 minor

Summary. The manuscript presents a numerical benchmark evaluating the stability properties of generative (primarily diffusion-based) regularizers for inverse problems in imaging. It assesses convergent regularization, robustness to out-of-distribution (OOD) data, and sensitivity to inaccuracies in the forward operator or noise model, while comparing these approaches against modern optimization-based variational methods. The central claim is that the results yield actionable insights into the settings where generative priors achieve state-of-the-art performance and where they fall short or become problematic, particularly for scientific and medical imaging applications.

Significance. If the benchmark design is representative, the work would be significant for guiding the adoption of generative priors in high-stakes inverse problems, where stability under imperfect conditions is essential. The explicit numerical comparisons to variational baselines and focus on multiple stability notions (convergent regularization, OOD, model mismatch) provide a useful empirical reference point that is currently lacking in the literature.

major comments (3)
  1. [§4 and Table 2] §4 (Experimental Setup) and Table 2: The central claim that the results provide insights for real scientific/medical deployments rests on the representativeness of the chosen forward operators, noise models, and OOD shifts. However, the paper provides no explicit quantification of perturbation magnitudes or structures (e.g., coil sensitivities, beam hardening, or motion artifacts) that would be typical in practice; if the tested mismatches remain small and synthetic, the observed stability rankings may not generalize and could reverse under realistic conditions.
  2. [§3.2 and §3.3] §3.2 (OOD Robustness) and §3.3 (Forward Operator Inaccuracies): The definitions of OOD shifts and operator perturbations lack precise metrics (e.g., distribution distance or perturbation norm) and do not include statistical significance testing or error bars on the reported reconstruction metrics. This makes it difficult to assess whether differences between generative and variational methods are robust or merely artifacts of the specific test cases.
  3. [§5] §5 (Discussion): The claim that generative priors 'may even be problematic' in certain settings is not sufficiently supported by the numerical evidence, as the paper does not explore failure modes under larger or structured mismatches that are common in real deployments; additional experiments with realistic operator errors would be needed to substantiate this part of the conclusion.
minor comments (3)
  1. [Throughout] Notation for the generative prior and regularization parameters is introduced inconsistently across sections; a single table summarizing all symbols and their definitions would improve readability.
  2. [Introduction] The abstract and introduction cite the importance of stability but do not reference prior benchmark papers on regularization stability (e.g., works on convergent regularization theory); adding these would better situate the contribution.
  3. [Figures] Figure captions for the reconstruction examples are too brief and do not indicate the specific forward operator or noise level used in each panel.

  1. Referee: [§4 and Table 2] §4 (Experimental Setup) and Table 2: The central claim that the results provide insights for real scientific/medical deployments rests on the representativeness of the chosen forward operators, noise models, and OOD shifts. However, the paper provides no explicit quantification of perturbation magnitudes or structures (e.g., coil sensitivities, beam hardening, or motion artifacts) that would be typical in practice; if the tested mismatches remain small and synthetic, the observed stability rankings may not generalize and could reverse under realistic conditions.

    Authors: We agree that explicit quantification of perturbation magnitudes would better support claims of relevance to real deployments. In the revision we will add precise metrics (e.g., relative L2 norms for operator mismatches and a chosen distributional distance for OOD shifts) together with references to typical artifact magnitudes reported in the MRI and CT literature. Our benchmark deliberately employs controlled synthetic perturbations on public datasets to ensure reproducibility and isolate effects; fully realistic structured artifacts would require clinical data outside the present scope. revision: partial

  2. Referee: [§3.2 and §3.3] §3.2 (OOD Robustness) and §3.3 (Forward Operator Inaccuracies): The definitions of OOD shifts and operator perturbations lack precise metrics (e.g., distribution distance or perturbation norm) and do not include statistical significance testing or error bars on the reported reconstruction metrics. This makes it difficult to assess whether differences between generative and variational methods are robust or merely artifacts of the specific test cases.

    Authors: We will revise Sections 3.2 and 3.3 to supply explicit quantitative definitions, including the normalized perturbation norm for forward-operator inaccuracies and a distributional distance for OOD shifts. Error bars computed across multiple random seeds will be added to all reported metrics, and we will include statistical significance tests (e.g., paired Wilcoxon tests) to substantiate the observed differences between generative and variational approaches. revision: yes

  3. Referee: [§5] §5 (Discussion): The claim that generative priors 'may even be problematic' in certain settings is not sufficiently supported by the numerical evidence, as the paper does not explore failure modes under larger or structured mismatches that are common in real deployments; additional experiments with realistic operator errors would be needed to substantiate this part of the conclusion.

    Authors: The statement reflects the comparative instabilities we observed under the controlled mismatches tested. We will revise the discussion to qualify the claim more explicitly as an indication under synthetic conditions and to stress the need for caution in high-stakes applications. While we agree that larger or structured real-world mismatches merit further study, the current benchmark already demonstrates settings in which variational methods exhibit greater robustness; we will strengthen the caveats rather than add new experiments. revision: partial

standing simulated objections not resolved
  • Additional experiments involving realistic clinical artifacts (e.g., motion, beam hardening, or actual coil-sensitivity maps on patient data) cannot be performed, as the study is restricted to public benchmark datasets to maintain controlled and reproducible evaluation.

Circularity Check

0 steps flagged

No circularity: empirical benchmark with direct numerical comparisons

full rationale

The paper is a numerical benchmark study that evaluates stability properties of generative priors versus optimization-based methods through direct simulations on chosen test cases. No derivations, first-principles predictions, or fitted parameters are presented that reduce to inputs by construction. Conclusions rest on comparative empirical results for convergent regularization, OOD robustness, and operator/noise inaccuracies, with no self-citation chains or ansatzes invoked as load-bearing steps. The analysis is self-contained against external benchmarks.
