Diamond Maps: Efficient Reward Alignment via Stochastic Flow Maps

ICML 2026poster

Flow and diffusion models produce high-quality samples, but adapting them to user preferences or constraints post-training remains costly and brittle, a challenge commonly called reward alignment. We argue that efficient reward alignment should be a property of the generative model itself, not an af…

Much Ado About Noising: Dispelling the Myths of Generative Robotic Control

ICLR 2026poster

Generative models, like flows and diffusions, have recently emerged as popular and efficacious policy parameterizations in robotics. There has been much speculation as to the factors underlying their successes, ranging from capturing multimodal action distributions to expressing more complex behavio…

Sample Efficient Full-Finetuning of Generative Control Policies

ICML 2026poster

Generative control policies (GCPs), such as diffusion- and flow-based control policies, have emerged as effective parameterizations for robot learning. Yet there remains substantial debate over how to sample efficiently fine-tune them via reinforcement learning. A prevailing view holds that fine-tun…
