Absorbing Quantization Error by Deformable Noise Scheduler for Diffusion Models

ICML 2026poster

Diffusion models deliver state-of-the-art image quality but are expensive to deploy. Post-training quantization (PTQ) can shrink models and speed up inference, yet residual quantization errors distort the diffusion distribution (the timestep-wise marginal over $\vx_t$), degrading sample quality. We …

Genie Envisioner: A Unified World Foundation Platform for Robotic Manipulation

ICLR 2026poster

We introduce Genie Envisioner (GE), a unified world foundation platform for robotic manipulation that jointly learns visual representations and action policies within a single video-generative framework. At its core, GE-Base is a large-scale instruction-conditioned video diffusion model that capture…

Stable Velocity: A Variance Perspective on Flow Matching

ICML 2026poster

While flow matching is elegant, its reliance on single-sample conditional velocities leads to high-variance training targets that destabilize optimization and slow convergence. By explicitly characterizing this variance, we identify 1) a *high-variance regime* near the prior, where optimization is c…

Advancing Generalizable Tumor Segmentation with Anomaly-Aware Open-Vocabulary Attention Maps and Frozen Foundation Diffusion Models

CVPR 2025poster

We explore Generalizable Tumor Segmentation, aiming to train a single model for zero-shot tumor segmentation across diverse anatomical regions. Existing methods face limitations related to segmentation quality, scalability, and the range of applicable imaging modalities. In this paper, we uncover th…

SymmetricDiffusers: Learning Discrete Diffusion on Finite Symmetric Groups

ICLR 2025oral

The group of permutations $S_n$, also known as the finite symmetric groups, are essential in fields such as combinatorics, physics, and chemistry. However, learning a probability distribution over $S_n$ poses significant challenges due to its intractable size and discrete nature. In this paper, we i…

Towards Realistic UAV Vision-Language Navigation: Platform, Benchmark, and Methodology

ICLR 2025poster

Developing agents capable of navigating to a target location based on language instructions and visual information, known as vision-language navigation (VLN), has attracted widespread interest. Most research has focused on ground-based agents, while UAV-based VLN remains relatively underexplored. Re…

UAV-Flow Colosseo: A Real-World Benchmark for Flying-on-a-Word UAV Imitation Learning

NeurIPS 2025poster

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are evolving into language-interactive platforms, enabling more intuitive forms of human-drone interaction. While prior works have primarily focused on high-level planning and long-horizon navigation, we shift attention to language-guided fine-grained trajectory contr…

ReSimAD: Zero-Shot 3D Domain Transfer for Autonomous Driving with Source Reconstruction and Target Simulation

ICLR 2024poster

Domain shifts such as sensor type changes and geographical situation variations are prevalent in Autonomous Driving (AD), which poses a challenge since AD model relying on the previous domain knowledge can be hardly directly deployed to a new domain without additional costs. In this paper, we provid…

Realistic Rainy Weather Simulation for LiDARs in CARLA Simulator

IROS 2024poster

Data augmentation methods to enhance perception performance in adverse weather have recently attracted considerable attention. Most of the LiDAR data augmentation methods post-process the existing dataset by physics-based models or machine-learning methods. However, due to the limited environmental…

On Sparse Modern Hopfield Model

NeurIPS 2023poster

We introduce the sparse modern Hopfield model as a sparse extension of the modern Hopfield model. Like its dense counterpart, the sparse modern Hopfield model equips a memory-retrieval dynamics whose one-step approximation corresponds to the sparse attention mechanism. Theoretically, our key contri…

Adaptive Model Design for Markov Decision Process

ICML 2022spotlight

In a Markov decision process (MDP), an agent interacts with the environment via perceptions and actions. During this process, the agent aims to maximize its own gain. Hence, appropriate regulations are often required, if we hope to take the external costs/benefits of its actions into consideration.…
