Existence-Field Diffusion Model for Spatial Point Processes with Variable Cardinality
We study generative modeling of spatial point processes (SPP), where both the number of points and their spatial configuration are governed by a joint distribution. While diffusion models have achieved strong performance in modeling complex distributions, extending them to variable-cardinality SPP remains challenging. Existing approaches either decouple the modeling of cardinality and spatial structure, or rely on discrete trans-dimensional operations to modify the number of points, resulting in inflexible and asymmetric generative dynamics. We propose the existence-field diffusion model (EFDM) for spatial point processes modeling, where each potential point is associated with an existence variable representing its degree of presence. This enables a unified diffusion process that jointly models both spatial locations and cardinality without requiring explicit discrete transitions. We demonstrate that our approach provides a flexible and general framework for generative modeling of spatial point processes, achieving improved modeling capability on datasets with varying cardinality.
