Auto-bidding serves as a critical tool for advertisers to improve their advertising performance. Recent progress has demonstrated that AI-Generated Bidding (AIGB), which learns a conditional generative planner from offline data, achieves superior performance compared to typical offline reinforcement…
Importance-Weighted Neural Processes (IWNPs) provide a principled framework for probabilistic meta-learning by using multi-particle latent representations to approximate the marginal log-likelihood of task data tightly. However, this work reveals that the standard optimization of IWNPs suffers from …
The neural process (NP) is a probabilistic meta learning model that learns distributions over functions via a global latent variable.It enables fast adaptation in few-shot scenarios by leveraging past experience. However, the design of latent variable structures and conditioning mechanisms in NPs re
Task robust adaptation is a long-standing pursuit in sequential decision-making. Some risk-averse strategies, e.g., the conditional value-at-risk principle, are incorporated in domain randomization or meta reinforcement learning to prioritize difficult tasks in optimization, which demand costly inte…
Meta learning is a promising paradigm in the era of large models and task distributional robustness has become an indispensable consideration in real-world scenarios. Recent advances have examined the effectiveness of tail task risk minimization in fast adaptation robustness improvement \citep{wang…
Meta learning is a promising paradigm to enable skill transfer across tasks. Most previous methods employ the empirical risk minimization principle in optimization. However, the resulting worst fast adaptation to a subset of tasks can be catastrophic in risk-sensitive scenarios. To robustify fast ad…
