聽Title: Towards Efficient and Reliable Generative and Sampling Models
Abstract:
This talk presents a unified framework for enhancing the reliability and geometric fidelity of generative models. We first develop a diffusion mechanism defined intrinsically on the SE(3) manifold, enabling the efficient sampling. To address the critical issue of mode collapse in energy-based samplers, we introduce a novel Importance Weighted Score Matching method that provably improves coverage of complex, multi-modal distributions. Finally, we extend these principles to infer underlying dynamical systems directly from incomplete and scattered training data. Collectively, this work bridges geometric consistency, statistical reliability, and learning from partial observations to advance the frontiers of generative and sampling models.
