On the numerical performance of finite-difference-based methods for derivative-free optimization

Optim. Methods Softw., 2022
The goal of this paper is to investigate an approach for derivative-free optimization that has not received sufficient attention in the literature and is yet one of the simplest to implement and parallelize. In its simplest form, it consists of employing

Derivative-Free Guidance in Continuous and Discrete Diffusion Models with Soft Value-Based Decoding

Neural Information Processing Systems
Diffusion models excel at capturing the natural design spaces of images, molecules, DNA, RNA, and protein sequences. However, rather than merely generating designs that are natural, we often aim to optimize downstream reward functions while preserving ...

Ensemble Kalman Diffusion Guidance: A Derivative-free Method for Inverse Problems

Trans. Mach. Learn. Res.
When solving inverse problems, one increasingly popular approach is to use pre-trained diffusion models as plug-and-play priors. This framework can accommodate different forward models without re-training while preserving the generative capability of ...
