RePercENT: Scaling Disentangled Representation Learning Beyond Two Modalities

To leverage the full potential of multimodal data, we need representations that go beyond the state-of-the-art alignment and fusion approaches and exploit all cross-modal interactions without sacrificing modality-specific information. Learning disentangled representations is a principled way to identify these underlying shared and unique factors that are hidden in observational data.

Nonparametric Partial Disentanglement via Mechanism Sparsity: Sparse Actions, Interventions and Sparse Temporal Dependencies

arXiv:2401. 04890v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This work introduces a novel principle for disentanglement we call mechanism sparsity regularization, which applies when the latent factors of interest depend sparsely on observed auxiliary variables and/or past latent factors.

Temporally Centered SIGReg Improves Multi-Task LeWorldModel Learning: From Analysis to Method

arXiv:2607. 26924v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent work on LeWorldModel (LeWM) has shown that the Sketched Isotropic Gaussian Regularizer (SIGReg) enables stable end-to-end world-model learning from pixels by regularizing the latent marginal distribution toward an isotropic Gaussian, thereby preventing representation collapse.

Temporally Centered SIGReg Improves Multi-Task LeWorldModel Learning: From Analysis to Method

Recent work on LeWorldModel (LeWM) has shown that the Sketched Isotropic Gaussian Regularizer (SIGReg) enables stable end-to-end world-model learning from pixels by regularizing the latent marginal distribution toward an isotropic Gaussian, thereby preventing representation collapse. While effective and elegant in single-task settings, this recipe does not extend reliably to multi-task training, leading to substantially worse downstream behavior-cloning performance.
