Guiding Vector Field Generation via Score-based Diffusion Model

2026-04-27 · Zirui Chen, Shiliang Guo, Shiyu Zhao arxiv

Guiding Vector Fields (GVFs) are a powerful tool for robotic path following. However, classical methods assume smooth, ordered curves and fail when paths are unordered, multi-branch, or generated by probabilistic models. We propose a unified framework, termed the Score-Induced Guiding Vector Field (SGVF), which leverages score-based generative modeling to construct vector fields directly from data distributions. SGVF learns tangent fields from point clouds with unit-norm, orthogonality, and directional-consistency losses, ensuring geometric fidelity and control feasibility. This approach removes the reliance on ad-hoc path segmentation and enables guidance along complex topologies such as branching and pseudo-manifolds. The study establishes a correspondence between score vanishing in diffusion models and GVF singularities and highlights representational capacity near sharp path curvatures. Experiments on robotic navigation in planar environments demonstrate that SGVF achieves reliable path following in scenarios where classical GVFs fail, underscoring its potential as a bridge between generative modeling and geometric control. Code and experiment video are available at https://github.com/czr-gif/Guiding-Vector-Field-Generation-via-Score-based-Diffusion-Model.

Score Jacobian Chaining: Lifting Pretrained 2D Diffusion Models for 3D Generation

2022-12-01 · CVPR 2023 1 · Haochen Wang, Xiaodan Du, Jiahao Li, Raymond A. Yeh 외

A diffusion model learns to predict a vector field of gradients. We propose to apply chain rule on the learned gradients, and back-propagate the score of a diffusion model through the Jacobian of a differentiable rendere…
