Model-Based Diffusion Sampling for Predictive Control in Offline Decision Making

arXiv:2512. 08280v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Offline decision-making via diffusion models often produces trajectories that are misaligned with system dynamics, limiting their reliability for control.

Valdi: Value Diffusion World Models

arXiv:2607. 00917v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: World models can enable Model Predictive Control (MPC), but this requires dynamics prediction that is both fast enough for online use and expressive enough to represent uncertain futures.

Improving Diffusion Planners by Self-Supervised Action Gating with Energies

arXiv:2603. 02650v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Diffusion planners are a strong approach for offline reinforcement learning, but they can fail when value-guided selection favours trajectories that score well yet are locally inconsistent with the environment dynamics, resulting in brittle execution.

RAPiD: Reward-Guided Consistency Distillation of Diffusion Planners for Real-Time Autonomous Driving

arXiv:2602. 07339v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion-based trajectory planners can model multi-modal driving behavior, but their iterative denoising process introduces a latency bottleneck for real-time closed-loop deployment.
