Efficient Approximate Posterior Sampling with Annealed Langevin Monte Carlo

ICLR 2026poster

We study the problem of posterior sampling in the context of score based generative models. We have a trained score network for a prior $p(x)$, a measurement model $p(y|x)$, and are tasked with sampling from the posterior $p(x|y)$. Prior work has shown this to be intractable in KL (in the worst case…

Improved Algorithms for Misspecified Linear Markov Decision Processes

AISTATS 2022poster

For the misspecified linear Markov decision process (MLMDP) model of Jin et al. [2020], we propose an algorithm with three desirable properties. (P1) Its regret after K episodes scales as Kmax{\ensuremath{\varepsilon}mis,\ensuremath{\varepsilon}tol}, where \ensuremath{\varepsilon}mis is the degree o…

Regret Bounds for Stochastic Shortest Path Problems with Linear Function Approximation

ICML 2022spotlight

We propose an algorithm that uses linear function approximation (LFA) for stochastic shortest path (SSP). Under minimal assumptions, it obtains sublinear regret, is computationally efficient, and uses stationary policies. To our knowledge, this is the first such algorithm in the LFA literature (for…
