PAC-Bayes bounds for Gibbs posteriors are obtained via singular learning theory, producing explicit and tighter posterior-averaged risk bounds that adapt to data structure in overparameterized models.
SPIN lets weak LLMs become strong by self-generating training data from previous model versions and training to prefer human-annotated responses over its own outputs, outperforming DPO even with extra GPT-4 data on benchmarks.
Return-conditional diffusion models for policies outperform offline RL on benchmarks by circumventing dynamic programming and enable constraint or skill composition.
Bayesian inverse problem with diffusion model priors for CML-based rain field reconstruction outperforms baselines by preserving rainfall statistics better than Gaussian processes.
