Conventional reward fine-tuning often uses a reverse-KL penalty, implemented as a squared difference between the fine-tuned and pretrained models’ velocity fields.
Direct distribution rewards preserve diversity during diffusion model fine-tuning
The authors regularize generated samples themselves rather than only constraining the dynamics that produce them.
