Iterative Tilting for Diffusion Fine-Tuning arXiv:2512.03234v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce iterative tilting, a gradient-free method for fine-tuning diffusion models toward reward-tilted distributions. The method decomposes a large reward tilt $exp(lambda r)$ into $N$ sequential smaller tilts, each admitting a tractable score update via first-order Taylor expansion. This requires only forward evaluations of the…
