Diffusion Policies Creating a Trust Region for Offline Reinforcement Learning
Offline reinforcement learning (RL) leverages pre-collected datasets to train optimal policies. Diffusion Q-Learning (DQL), introducing diffusion models as a powerful and expressive policy class, significantly boosts the performance of offline RL. However, its reliance on iterative denoising sampling to generate actions slows down both training and inference.
A New Defense Against Adversarial Images: Turning a Weakness into a Strength
Shengyuan Hu, Tao Yu, Chuan Guo, Wei-Lun Chao, Kilian Q. Weinberger
While many techniques for detecting these attacks have been proposed, theyareeasily bypassed when theadversary hasfullknowledge of the detection mechanism and adapts the attack strategy accordingly. In this paper,we adopt anovel perspectiveand regard the omnipresence of adversarial perturbations asastrength rather thanaweakness.
