# 扩散时间点过程 (Diffusion-based TPP)
扩散 TPP 利用扩散模型的迭代去噪机制生成整个事件序列提供了一种非自回归non-autoregressive的 TPP 建模范式。
## 核心思想
不同于传统神经 TPP 逐事件自回归预测 `p(t_n | H_{t_{n-1}})`,扩散 TPP 学习整个序列 `T = (t_1,...,t_N)` 的联合分布:
```
T_0 ~ data distribution
T_1, ..., T_K (前向加噪)
p_theta(T_{k-1} | T_k) (反向去噪/生成)
```
## 关键工作
- **Add-and-Thin** (Lüdke et al., 2023):首个扩散 TPP 框架,用点过程特有的"添加"和"thinning"操作替代标准高斯扩散,保留事件序列语义
- **EventFlow** (Kerrigan et al., 2024):用 flow matching 在一次去噪轨迹中预测整个预测窗口内的多个未来事件
- **Spatio-temporal diffusion** (Yuan et al., 2023):联合建模空间和时间的扩散点过程
- **Point set diffusion** (Lüdke et al., 2024):将事件序列视为无序点集,排列不变生成
## 优势与局限
### 优势
- 批量化生成整条序列,避免自回归误差累积
- 天然捕捉事件间的全局依赖
- 适合长程预测和序列模拟
### 局限
- **时序一致性弱**:隐式表征时间信息,难以保证因果顺序
- **训练/推理成本高**:每次生成需数十到数百次去噪步骤
- **缺乏显式似然**:模型评估和校准困难
- **精细时序结构**inter-event 时间分布不如直接参数化精确
