Learning to remove noise from images yields fantastic image generators. Here's how you can use diffusion models to solve Combinatorial Optimization problems by removing noise from solutions that you don't even have! To be presented @ICML 2024, 🧵👇

Are you wondering if you can turn your favourite maximum-entropy RL algorithm into a diffusion-based variant that learns multimodal action distributions?
It turns out the answer is yes, using Diffusion-Augmented Markov Decision Processes (DA-MDPs).

Importantly, DA-MDPs also work with action chunking, widely used in diffusion-based robot control. We demonstrate policies that learn to generate multiple actions jointly and execute them in sequence.

Presenting our spotlight paper on trust regions for optimal control at NeurIPS, arxiv.org/pdf/2508.12511. We show that KL-equipspaced measure transport can be interpreted as geometric annealing with adaptive step sizes, leading to major performance gains on hard control problems.
Ever experienced instabilities when using the popular LV (Log Variance) loss for training Diffusion Bridge Samplers?
If you’re at NeurIPS in San Diego next week, we’d love to connect and discuss our work.
