Poisson model
Gaussian approximation
\[\lambda = N_0~e^{-Ax}\]
\[y \sim \text{Poisson}(\lambda)\]
\[y \sim \text{Normal}(\lambda, \lambda)\]
DDPM Schedule
\[p(x_t \mid x_0) = \mathcal{N}(\sqrt{\alpha_t}x_0, (1 - \alpha_t)\mathbb{I}) \]
Tweedie's formula
If \(x_i \sim \mathcal{N}(a_i~x_0, b_i^2 \mathbb{I})\), then
\[\hat{x}_0(x_t) = \mathbb{E}[x_0 \mid x_t] = \frac{x_t + b_i^2~\nabla_{x_t} \log p_t(x_t)}{a_i}\]
\(x_0\)

\(t=0\)
\(t=1\)
DPS:
\[\nabla_{x_t} \log p(y \mid x_t) \approx \nabla_{x_t} \log p(y \mid \hat{x}_0(x_t))\]
