Diverse Imitation Learning via Self-OrganizingGenerative Models

no code implementations29 Sep 2021 Arash Vahabpour, QIUJING LU, Tianyi Wang, Omead Pooladzandi, Vwani Roychowhury

To address this problem, we introduce a novel generative model for behavior cloning, in a mode-separating manner.

Diverse Imitation Learning via Self-Organizing Generative Models

no code implementations6 May 2022 Arash Vahabpour, Tianyi Wang, QIUJING LU, Omead Pooladzandi, Vwani Roychowdhury

Imitation learning is the task of replicating expert policy from demonstrations, without access to a reward function.

De-Biasing Generative Models using Counterfactual Methods

no code implementations4 Jul 2022 Sunay Bhat, Jeffrey Jiang, Omead Pooladzandi, Gregory Pottie

Our proposed method combines a causal latent space VAE model with specific modification to emphasize causal fidelity, enabling finer control over the causal layer and the ability to learn a robust intervention framework.

Adaptive Second Order Coresets for Data-efficient Machine Learning

no code implementations28 Jul 2022 Omead Pooladzandi, David Davini, Baharan Mirzasoleiman

We propose AdaCore, a method that leverages the geometry of the data to extract subsets of the training examples for efficient machine learning.

Causal Structural Hypothesis Testing and Data Generation Models

1 code implementation20 Oct 2022 Jeffrey Jiang, Omead Pooladzandi, Sunay Bhat, Gregory Pottie

We show that the variational version of the architecture, Causal Structural Variational Hypothesis Testing can improve performance in low SNR regimes.

Improving Levenberg-Marquardt Algorithm for Neural Networks

1 code implementation17 Dec 2022 Omead Pooladzandi, Yiming Zhou

We explore the usage of the Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) algorithm for regression (non-linear least squares) and classification (generalized Gauss-Newton methods) tasks in neural networks.

Generating High Fidelity Synthetic Data via Coreset selection and Entropic Regularization

no code implementations31 Jan 2023 Omead Pooladzandi, Pasha Khosravi, Erik Nijkamp, Baharan Mirzasoleiman

Generative models have the ability to synthesize data points drawn from the data distribution, however, not all generated samples are high quality.

Towards Composable Distributions of Latent Space Augmentations

no code implementations6 Mar 2023 Omead Pooladzandi, Jeffrey Jiang, Sunay Bhat, Gregory Pottie

We propose a composable framework for latent space image augmentation that allows for easy combination of multiple augmentations.

Curvature-Informed SGD via General Purpose Lie-Group Preconditioners

1 code implementation7 Feb 2024 Omead Pooladzandi, Xi-Lin Li

We present a novel approach to accelerate stochastic gradient descent (SGD) by utilizing curvature information obtained from Hessian-vector products or finite differences of parameters and gradients, similar to the BFGS algorithm.
