Ant Colony Sampling with GFlowNets for Combinatorial Optimization
While Transformers have enabled tremendous progress in various application settings, such architectures still lag behind traditional symboli… (voir plus)c planners for solving complex decision making tasks.
In this work, we demonstrate how to train Transformers to solve complex planning tasks.
This is accomplished by training an encoder-decoder Transformer model to predict the _search dynamics_ of the
Continuous normalizing flows (CNFs) are an attractive generative modeling technique, but they have been held back by limitations in their si… (voir plus)mulation-based maximum likelihood training. We introduce the generalized \textit{conditional flow matching} (CFM) technique, a family of simulation-free training objectives for CNFs. CFM features a stable regression objective like that used to train the stochastic flow in diffusion models but enjoys the efficient inference of deterministic flow models. In contrast to both diffusion models and prior CNF training algorithms, CFM does not require the source distribution to be Gaussian or require evaluation of its density. A variant of our objective is optimal transport CFM (OT-CFM), which creates simpler flows that are more stable to train and lead to faster inference, as evaluated in our experiments. Furthermore, OT-CFM is the first method to compute dynamic OT in a simulation-free way. Training CNFs with CFM improves results on a variety of conditional and unconditional generation tasks, such as inferring single cell dynamics, unsupervised image translation, and Schrödinger bridge inference.
We present an algorithm for skill discovery from expert demonstrations. The algorithm first utilizes Large Language Models (LLMs) to propose… (voir plus) an initial segmentation of the trajectories. Following that, a hierarchical variational inference framework incorporates the LLM-generated segmentation information to discover reusable skills by merging trajectory segments. To further control the trade-off between compression and reusability, we introduce a novel auxiliary objective based on the Minimum Description Length principle that helps guide this skill discovery process. We test our system on BabyAI, a grid world navigation environment, as well as ALFRED, a household simulation environment.Our results demonstrate that agents equipped with our method can discover skills that help accelerate learning and outperform baseline skill learning approaches on new long-horizon tasks.
We propose the problem of conversational web navigation, where a digital agent controls a web browser and follows user instructions to solve… (voir plus) real-world tasks in a multi-turn dialogue fashion. To support this problem, we introduce WebLINX - a large-scale benchmark of 100K interactions across 2300 expert demonstrations of conversational web navigation. Our benchmark covers a broad range of patterns on over 150 real-world websites and can be used to train and evaluate agents in diverse scenarios. Due to the magnitude of information present, Large Language Models (LLMs) cannot process entire web pages in real-time. To solve this bottleneck, we design a retrieval-inspired model that efficiently prunes HTML pages by ranking relevant elements. We use the selected elements, along with screenshots and action history, to assess a variety of models for their ability to replicate human behavior when navigating the web. Our experiments span from small text-only to proprietary multimodal LLMs. We find that smaller finetuned decoders surpass the best zero-shot LLMs (including GPT-4V), but also larger finetuned multimodal models which were explicitly pretrained on screenshots. However, all finetuned models struggle to generalize to unseen websites. Our findings highlight the need for large multimodal models that can generalize to novel settings. Our code, data and models are available for research: https://mcgill-nlp.github.io/weblinx.
