Beyond ELBOs: A Large-Scale Evaluation of Variational Methods for Sampling
Denis Blessing, Xiaogang Jia, Johannes Esslinger +2
Monte Carlo methods, Variational Inference, and their combinations play a pivotal role in sampling from intractable probability distributions. However, current studies lack a unifi…
Variational Distillation of Diffusion Policies into Mixture of Experts
Hongyi Zhou, Denis Blessing, Ge Li +4
This work introduces Variational Diffusion Distillation (VDD), a novel method that distills denoising diffusion policies into Mixtures of Experts (MoE) through variational inferenc…
MaIL: Improving Imitation Learning with Mamba
Xiaogang Jia, Qian Wang, Atalay Donat +7
This work presents Mamba Imitation Learning (MaIL), a novel imitation learning (IL) architecture that provides an alternative to state-of-the-art (SoTA) Transformer-based policies.…
Towards Diverse Behaviors: A Benchmark for Imitation Learning with Human Demonstrations
Xiaogang Jia, Denis Blessing, Xinkai Jiang +4
Imitation learning with human data has demonstrated remarkable success in teaching robots in a wide range of skills. However, the inherent diversity in human behavior leads to the…
