Hierarchical Skills for Efficient Exploration
Jonas Gehring, Gabriel Synnaeve, Andreas Krause +1
In reinforcement learning, pre-trained low-level skills have the potential to greatly facilitate exploration. However, prior knowledge of the downstream task is required to strike…
Diversified Sampling for Batched Bayesian Optimization with Determinantal Point Processes
Elvis Nava, Mojmír Mutný, Andreas Krause
In Bayesian Optimization (BO) we study black-box function optimization with noisy point evaluations and Bayesian priors. Convergence of BO can be greatly sped up by batching, where…
Sensing Cox Processes via Posterior Sampling and Positive Bases
Mojmír Mutný, Andreas Krause
We study adaptive sensing of Cox point processes, a widely used model from spatial statistics. We introduce three tasks: maximization of captured events, search for the maximum of…
Distributional Gradient Matching for Learning Uncertain Neural Dynamics Models
Lenart Treven, Philippe Wenk, Florian Dörfler +1
Differential equations in general and neural ODEs in particular are an essential technique in continuous-time system identification. While many deterministic learning algorithms ha…
Proximal Optimal Transport Modeling of Population Dynamics
Charlotte Bunne, Laetitia Meng-Papaxanthos, Andreas Krause +1
We propose a new approach to model the collective dynamics of a population of particles evolving with time. As is often the case in challenging scientific applications, notably sin…
Regret Bounds for Gaussian-Process Optimization in Large Domains
Manuel Wüthrich, Bernhard Schölkopf, Andreas Krause
The goal of this paper is to characterize Gaussian-Process optimization in the setting where the function domain is large relative to the number of admissible function evaluations,…
