Diffusion models as plug-and-play priors

The possibility of inferring high-dimensional data inference in a model that consists of a prior and an auxiliary differentiable constraint given some additional information is considered, thereby allowing a range of potential applications in adapting models to new domains and tasks.

Trajectory Balance: Improved Credit Assignment in GFlowNets

It is proved that any global minimizer of the trajectory balance objective can define a policy that samples exactly from the target distribution, and empirically demonstrate the benefits of the trajectories balance objective for GFlowNet convergence, diversity of generated samples, and robustness to long action sequences and large action spaces.

Let the Flows Tell: Solving Graph Combinatorial Optimization Problems with GFlowNets

This paper designs Markov decision processes (MDPs) for different combinatorial problems and proposes to train conditional GFlowNets to sample from the solution space and demonstrates that GFlowNet policies can efficiently find high-quality solutions.

Likelihood hacking in probabilistic program synthesis

This work formalises LH in a core probabilistic programming language (PPL) and gives sufficient syntactic conditions for its prevention, proving that a safe language fragment satisfying these conditions cannot produce likelihood-hacking programs.
