The reverse process of a diffusion model can only be approximated as a Markov chain when the number of noise-adding steps is sufficiently large and the noise at each step is sufficiently small.

VerifiedInference in diffusion models is an iterative denoising process that typically requires dozens or even hundreds of timesteps and is particularly sensitive to numerical errors.79% similarVerifiedStandard generation with diffusion models may require 50–100 denoising iterations, while consistency models or progressive distillation techniques can reduce the number of steps to 4–876% similarVerifiedDiffusion models restore target images or video frames from random noise through stepwise denoising, typically requiring dozens of denoising iterations, with extremely high computational overhead.75% similarUnverifiedDiffusion language models often require dozens or even hundreds of denoising iterations to ensure generation quality, with each step requiring one complete forward pass, so the actual speed advantage is not always apparent.74% similarUnverifiedWhen the number of steps drops sharply to 4, the denoising span required per step increases significantly, forcing the model to make bolder predictions in a single step, which can easily lead to loss of high-frequency detail and incoherent motion trajectories.73% similar
