• Abstract: Generative moment matching networks (GMMNs) are suggested for modeling the cross-sectional dependence between stochastic processes. The stochastic processes considered are geometric Brownian motions and ARMA-GARCH models. Geometric Brownian motions lead to an application of pricing American basket call options under dependence and ARMA-GARCH models lead to an application of simulating predictive distributions. In both types of applications the benefit of using GMMNs in comparison to parametric dependence models is highlighted and the fact that GMMNs can produce dependent quasi-random samples with no additional effort is exploited to obtain variance reduction.

  We cast reward fine-tuning as optimal control (SOC) for dynamical generative models that produce samples through an iterative process. We find that our approach significantly improves over existing methods for reward fine-tuning, achieving better consistency, realism, and generalization to unseen human preference reward models.

  We propose autoregressive conditional score models (AR-CSM) where we parameterize the joint distribution in terms of the derivatives of univariable log-conditionals (scores) For AR-CSM models, this divergence between data and model distributions can be computed and optimized efficiently, requiring no expensive sampling or adversarial training. We show with extensive experimental results that it can be applied to density estimation on synthetic data, image generation, image denoising, and training latent variable models with implicit encoders.
