The diffusion model is like any other machine learning model: it requires training data. For this diffusion model, we will create training data of physically realizable plants dynamics. This training data will teach the diffusion model to create realistic time and frequency responses as novel samples. -Perturbing a nominal plant to establish robustness is not a new technique. Robust control can find the set of plants with which a controller remains performant. Finding this set is a well understood problem, and can be straightforward. An engineer can use this set of plants to guarantee how robust a nominal controller is to perturbation. But, engineer cannot use this set to make guarantees about a implemented controller. Implementation of control laws requires lowering the abstraction level from the model of a controller used in robust control and must be verified for robustness independently. \ No newline at end of file +Perturbing a nominal plant to establish robustness is not a new technique.
