Simulation-Free Differential Dynamics through Neural Conservation Laws

Mengjian Hua, Eric Vanden-Eijnden, Ricky T. Q. Chen

We present a novel simulation-free framework for training continuous-time diffusion processes over very general objective functions. Existing methods typically involve either presc…

Muscle Crossbridge Theory With Internal Crossbridge Dynamics

Mengjian Hua, Charles S. Peskin

We describe in this paper a crossbridge model in which an attached crossbridge behaves like a linear spring with a variable rest length. We assume in particular that the rest lengt…

An Efficient On-Policy Deep Learning Framework for Stochastic Optimal Control

Mengjian Hua, Mathieu Laurière, Eric Vanden-Eijnden

We present a novel on-policy algorithm for solving stochastic optimal control (SOC) problems. By leveraging the Girsanov theorem, our method directly computes on-policy gradients o…

Probabilistic Forecasting with Stochastic Interpolants and Föllmer Processes

Yifan Chen, Mark Goldstein, Mengjian Hua +3

We propose a framework for probabilistic forecasting of dynamical systems based on generative modeling. Given observations of the system state over time, we formulate the forecasti…

Efficient Training of Energy-Based Models Using Jarzynski Equality

Davide Carbone, Mengjian Hua, Simon Coste +1

Energy-based models (EBMs) are generative models inspired by statistical physics with a wide range of applications in unsupervised learning. Their performance is best measured by t…

Heading perception and the structure of the optic acceleration field

Charlie S. Burlingham, Mengjian Hua, Oliver Xu +2

Visual estimation of heading in the human brain is widely believed to be based on instantaneous optic flow, the velocity of retinal image motion. However, we previously found that…
