Nearest Neighbour Score Estimators for Diffusion Generative Models

Matthew Niedoba, Dylan Green, Saeid Naderiparizi, Vasileios Lioutas, Jonathan Wilder Lavington, Xiaoxuan Liang +6

ICML 2024poster

Score function estimation is the cornerstone of both training and sampling from diffusion generative models. Despite this fact, the most commonly used estimators are either biased neural network approximations or high variance Monte Carlo estimators based on the conditional score. We introduce a nov…

A Diffusion-Model of Joint Interactive Navigation

Matthew Niedoba, Jonathan Wilder Lavington, Yunpeng Liu, Vasileios Lioutas, Justice Sefas, Xiaoxuan Liang +5

NeurIPS 2023poster

Simulation of autonomous vehicle systems requires that simulated traffic participants exhibit diverse and realistic behaviors. The use of prerecorded real-world traffic scenarios in simulation ensures realism but the rarity of safety critical events makes large scale collection of driving scenarios…

Critic Sequential Monte Carlo

Vasileios Lioutas, Jonathan Wilder Lavington, Justice Sefas, Matthew Niedoba, Yunpeng Liu, Berend Zwartsenberg +3

ICLR 2023poster

We introduce CriticSMC, a new algorithm for planning as inference built from a composition of sequential Monte Carlo with learned Soft-Q function heuristic factors. These heuristic factors, obtained from parametric approximations of the marginal likelihood ahead, more effectively guide SMC towards t…
