Function-Space Regularization for Deep Bayesian Classification

no code implementations12 Jul 2023 Jihao Andreas Lin, Joe Watson, Pascal Klink, Jan Peters

Bayesian deep learning approaches assume model parameters to be latent random variables and infer posterior distributions to quantify uncertainty, increase safety and trust, and prevent overconfident and unpredictable behavior.

Adversarial Robustness Classification +3

Coherent Soft Imitation Learning

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2023 Joe Watson, Sandy H. Huang, Nicolas Heess

Imitation learning methods seek to learn from an expert either through behavioral cloning (BC) of the policy or inverse reinforcement learning (IRL) of the reward.

Inferring Smooth Control: Monte Carlo Posterior Policy Iteration with Gaussian Processes

1 code implementation7 Oct 2022 Joe Watson, Jan Peters

Monte Carlo methods have become increasingly relevant for control of non-differentiable systems, approximate dynamics models and learning from data.

Function-Space Variational Inference for Deep Bayesian Classification

no code implementations29 Sep 2021 Jihao Andreas Lin, Joe Watson, Pascal Klink, Jan Peters

Bayesian deep learning approaches assume model parameters to be latent random variables and infer posterior predictive distributions to quantify uncertainty, increase safety and trust, and prevent overconfident and unpredictable behavior.

Advancing Trajectory Optimization with Approximate Inference: Exploration, Covariance Control and Adaptive Risk

1 code implementation10 Mar 2021 Joe Watson, Jan Peters

Discrete-time stochastic optimal control remains a challenging problem for general, nonlinear systems under significant uncertainty, with practical solvers typically relying on the certainty equivalence assumption, replanning and/or extensive regularization.

A Differentiable Newton Euler Algorithm for Multi-body Model Learning

no code implementations19 Oct 2020 Michael Lutter, Johannes Silberbauer, Joe Watson, Jan Peters

In this work, we examine a spectrum of hybrid model for the domain of multi-body robot dynamics.

Active Inference or Control as Inference? A Unifying View

no code implementations1 Oct 2020 Joe Watson, Abraham Imohiosen, Jan Peters

Active inference (AI) is a persuasive theoretical framework from computational neuroscience that seeks to describe action and perception as inference-based computation.
