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.

arXiv:2607. 14522v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We formulate reinforcement learning (RL) in continuous time with discrete state spaces and possibly arbitrary action spaces via a stochastic control approach, where the state dynamics are modeled as a controlled continuous-time Markov chain (CTMC).

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.

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.
By Yuan Lu, Dongqi Han, Yansen Wang, Dongsheng Li
Effective model-based reinforcement learning in stochastic environments requires planning that accounts for predictive uncertainty. Propagating full state distributions analytically offers a principled way to do this, but has traditionally required restrictive policy or reward structures to remain tractable.
Diffusion models have strong generative capabilities. However, their maximum likelihood training objective only focuses on reconstructing the data distribution, making it difficult to align with specific preferences.
arXiv:2607. 19919v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose Diffusion ReRoll, a diffusion-based framework for robotic sequential prediction that enables revisable denoising over horizons.
