Integration Matters: Rollout-Based Training for Constrained Diffusion Models
Xiaoxuan Liang, Saeid Naderiparizi, Berend Zwartsenberg +1
Constrained generative models aim to produce samples that satisfy complex feasibility constraints while remaining faithful to the data distribution. Existing constrained generation…
Improved Constrained Generation by Bridging Pretrained Generative Models
Xiaoxuan Liang, Saeid Naderiparizi, Yunpeng Liu +2
Constrained generative modeling is fundamental to applications such as robotic control and autonomous driving, where models must respect physical laws and safety-critical constrain…
Constrained Generative Modeling with Manually Bridged Diffusion Models
Saeid Naderiparizi, Xiaoxuan Liang, Berend Zwartsenberg +1
In this paper we describe a novel framework for diffusion-based generative modeling on constrained spaces. In particular, we introduce manual bridges, a framework that expands the…
Lifelong Learning of Video Diffusion Models From a Single Video Stream
Jason Yoo, Yingchen He, Saeid Naderiparizi +4
Video diffusion models can enable embodied agents to anticipate plausible futures from the recent past, but they are typically trained offline on curated datasets--a mismatch with…
TorchDriveEnv: A Reinforcement Learning Benchmark for Autonomous Driving with Reactive, Realistic, and Diverse Non-Playable Characters
Jonathan Wilder Lavington, Ke Zhang, Vasileios Lioutas +9
The training, testing, and deployment, of autonomous vehicles requires realistic and efficient simulators. Moreover, because of the high variability between different problems pres…
Semantically Consistent Video Inpainting with Conditional Diffusion Models
Dylan Green, William Harvey, Saeid Naderiparizi +10
Current state-of-the-art methods for video inpainting typically rely on optical flow or attention-based approaches to inpaint masked regions by propagating visual information acros…
Nearest Neighbour Score Estimators for Diffusion Generative Models
Matthew Niedoba, Dylan Green, Saeid Naderiparizi +9
Score function estimation is the cornerstone of both training and sampling from diffusion generative models. Despite this fact, the most commonly used estimators are either biased…
Don't be so negative! Score-based Generative Modeling with Oracle-assisted Guidance
Saeid Naderiparizi, Xiaoxuan Liang, Setareh Cohan +2
Score-based diffusion models are a powerful class of generative models, widely utilized across diverse domains. Despite significant advancements in large-scale tasks such as text-t…
RangeAugment: Efficient Online Augmentation with Range Learning
Sachin Mehta, Saeid Naderiparizi, Fartash Faghri +5
State-of-the-art automatic augmentation methods (e.g., AutoAugment and RandAugment) for visual recognition tasks diversify training data using a large set of augmentation operation…
Flexible Diffusion Modeling of Long Videos
William Harvey, Saeid Naderiparizi, Vaden Masrani +2
We present a framework for video modeling based on denoising diffusion probabilistic models that produces long-duration video completions in a variety of realistic environments. We…
Conditional Image Generation by Conditioning Variational Auto-Encoders
William Harvey, Saeid Naderiparizi, Frank Wood
We present a conditional variational auto-encoder (VAE) which, to avoid the substantial cost of training from scratch, uses an architecture and training objective capable of levera…
Uncertainty in Neural Processes
Saeid Naderiparizi, Kenny Chiu, Benjamin Bloem-Reddy +1
We explore the effects of architecture and training objective choice on amortized posterior predictive inference in probabilistic conditional generative models. We aim this work to…
Coping With Simulators That Don't Always Return
Andrew Warrington, Saeid Naderiparizi, Frank Wood
Deterministic models are approximations of reality that are easy to interpret and often easier to build than stochastic alternatives. Unfortunately, as nature is capricious, observ…
Planning as Inference in Epidemiological Models
Frank Wood, Andrew Warrington, Saeid Naderiparizi +8
In this work we demonstrate how to automate parts of the infectious disease-control policy-making process via performing inference in existing epidemiological models. The kind of i…
Amortized Rejection Sampling in Universal Probabilistic Programming
Saeid Naderiparizi, Adam Ścibior, Andreas Munk +9
Naive approaches to amortized inference in probabilistic programs with unbounded loops can produce estimators with infinite variance. This is particularly true of importance sampli…
