Stick-Breaking Variational Autoencoders
read the original abstract
We extend Stochastic Gradient Variational Bayes to perform posterior inference for the weights of Stick-Breaking processes. This development allows us to define a Stick-Breaking Variational Autoencoder (SB-VAE), a Bayesian nonparametric version of the variational autoencoder that has a latent representation with stochastic dimensionality. We experimentally demonstrate that the SB-VAE, and a semi-supervised variant, learn highly discriminative latent representations that often outperform the Gaussian VAE's.

Learning World Graphs to Accelerate Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning
A two-stage framework learns a world graph of pivotal states task-agnostically via joint training of a latent model and curiosity-driven policy, then uses the graph to accelerate hierarchical RL on maze tasks.
