The performance of time-independent, orbital optimized calculations of excited states is assessed with respect to charge transfer excitations in organic molecules in comparison to the linear-response time-dependent density functional theory…

Optimal trajectories that minimize a user-defined cost function in dynamic systems require the solution of a two-point boundary value problem. The optimization process yields an optimal control sequence that depends on the initial…

We propose a strategy for optimizing a sensor trajectory in order to estimate the time dependence of a localized scalar source in turbulent channel flow. The approach leverages the view of the adjoint scalar field as the sensitivity of…

Sensitivity analysis with forced optimally time dependent (f-OTD) modes is introduced and its application for skeletal model reduction is demonstrated. f-OTD expands the sensitivity coefficient matrix into a lowdimensional, time dependent,…

A crucial problem in reinforcement learning is learning the optimal policy. We study this in tabular infinite-horizon discounted Markov decision processes under the online setting. The existing algorithms either fail to achieve regret…

An MPC controller uses a model of the dynamical system to plan an optimal control strategy for a finite horizon, which makes its performance intrinsically tied to the quality of the model. When faults occur, the compromised model will…

Diffusion models exhibit excellent sample quality, but existing guidance methods often require additional model training or are limited to specific tasks. We revisit guidance in diffusion models from the perspective of variational inference…

Imitation learning is an efficient method for teaching robots a variety of tasks. Diffusion Policy, which uses a conditional denoising diffusion process to generate actions, has demonstrated superior performance, particularly in learning…

Masked Diffusion Models (MDMs) offer flexible, non-autoregressive generation, but this freedom introduces a challenge: final output quality is highly sensitive to the decoding order. We are the first to formalize this issue, attributing the…
