Solving General Noisy Inverse Problem via Posterior Sampling: A Policy Gradient Viewpoint

AISTATS 2024poster

Solving image inverse problems (e.g., super-resolution and inpainting) requires generating a high fidelity image that matches the given input (the low-resolution image or the masked image). By using the input image as guidance, we can leverage a pretrained diffusion generative model to solve a wide…

Learning Causal Semantic Representation for Out-of-Distribution Prediction

NeurIPS 2021poster

Conventional supervised learning methods, especially deep ones, are found to be sensitive to out-of-distribution (OOD) examples, largely because the learned representation mixes the semantic factor with the variation factor due to their domain-specific correlation, while only the semantic factor cau…

On the Generative Utility of Cyclic Conditionals

NeurIPS 2021poster

We study whether and how can we model a joint distribution $p(x,z)$ using two conditional models $p(x|z)$ and $q(z|x)$ that form a cycle. This is motivated by the observation that deep generative models, in addition to a likelihood model $p(x|z)$, often also use an inference model $q(z|x)$ for extra…
