Reinforcement Learning via Fixed-point Flow Matching

Denis Blessing, Onur Celik, Gerhard Neumann

In maximum entropy and behavior-constrained reinforcement learning (RL), the optimal policy is given by a Boltzmann distribution. Generating samples from this distribution can be c…

Scalable Maximum Entropy Reinforcement Learning for Diffusion Policies via Adjoint Matching

Serge Thilges, Onur Celik, Denis Blessing +2

Diffusion policies have recently emerged as a powerful paradigm for representing complex action distributions in reinforcement learning (RL). However, their application to online R…

Trust-Region Diffusion Policies for Massively Parallel On-Policy RL

Huy Le, Onur Celik, Denis Blessing +6

Reinforcement learning with massively parallel simulations has become a standard framework for developing robust, deployable policies; however, most existing approaches still rely…

PAWS: Preference Learning with Advantage-Weighted Segments

Aleksandar Taranovic, Onur Celik, Niklas Freymuth +6

Preference-based reinforcement learning (PbRL) learns policies from human trajectory-level comparisons, avoiding explicit reward design and expert demonstrations. Existing methods…

SEAR: Sample Efficient Action Chunking Reinforcement Learning

C. F. Maximilian Nagy, Onur Celik, Emiliyan Gospodinov +4

Action chunking improves exploration and accelerates value propagation in long-horizon reinforcement learning, but naively applying off-policy methods to the temporally extended ac…

Scaffolding Dexterous Manipulation with Vision-Language Models

Vincent de Bakker, Joey Hejna, Tyler Ga Wei Lum +6

Dexterous robotic hands are essential for performing complex manipulation tasks, yet remain difficult to train due to the challenges of demonstration collection and high-dimensiona…

Chunking the Critic: A Transformer-based Soft Actor-Critic with N-Step Returns

Dong Tian, Onur Celik, Gerhard Neumann

We introduce a sequence-conditioned critic for Soft Actor-Critic (SAC) that models trajectory context with a lightweight Transformer and trains on aggregated -step targets. Unli…

DIME:Diffusion-Based Maximum Entropy Reinforcement Learning

Onur Celik, Zechu Li, Denis Blessing +5

Maximum entropy reinforcement learning (MaxEnt-RL) has become the standard approach to RL due to its beneficial exploration properties. Traditionally, policies are parameterized us…

MuTT: A Multimodal Trajectory Transformer for Robot Skills

Claudius Kienle, Benjamin Alt, Onur Celik +4

High-level robot skills represent an increasingly popular paradigm in robot programming. However, configuring the skills' parameters for a specific task remains a manual and time-c…

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.…

Acquiring Diverse Skills using Curriculum Reinforcement Learning with Mixture of Experts

Onur Celik, Aleksandar Taranovic, Gerhard Neumann

Reinforcement learning (RL) is a powerful approach for acquiring a good-performing policy. However, learning diverse skills is challenging in RL due to the commonly used Gaussian p…

Information Maximizing Curriculum: A Curriculum-Based Approach for Imitating Diverse Skills

Denis Blessing, Onur Celik, Xiaogang Jia +4

Imitation learning uses data for training policies to solve complex tasks. However, when the training data is collected from human demonstrators, it often leads to multimodal distr…
