Reward-Guided Iterative Refinement in Diffusion Models at Test-Time with Applications to Protein and DNA Design

Masatoshi Uehara, Xingyu Su, Yulai Zhao +5

To fully leverage the capabilities of diffusion models, we are often interested in optimizing downstream reward functions during inference. While numerous algorithms for reward-gui…

Inference-Time Alignment in Diffusion Models with Reward-Guided Generation: Tutorial and Review

Masatoshi Uehara, Yulai Zhao, Chenyu Wang +4

This tutorial provides an in-depth guide on inference-time guidance and alignment methods for optimizing downstream reward functions in diffusion models. While diffusion models are…

Provably Efficient CVaR RL in Low-rank MDPs

Yulai Zhao, Wenhao Zhan, Xiaoyan Hu +4

We study risk-sensitive Reinforcement Learning (RL), where we aim to maximize the Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) with a fixed risk tolerance τ. Prior theoretical work studying…

Optimizing the Performative Risk under Weak Convexity Assumptions

Yulai Zhao

In performative prediction, a predictive model impacts the distribution that generates future data, a phenomenon that is being ignored in classical supervised learning. In this clo…
