I am beyond excited to share our new work: Stein Variational Evolution Strategies I'm really excited about this for many reasons: 1. I got to collaborate with the amazing Robert Lange and Marc Toussaint. 2. It will be an oral presentation at #UAI2025 next month! A thread. 🧵

Introducing Stein Variational Evolution Strategies Exciting new work on leveraging Stein Variational methods for discovering diverse solutions with ES 🦎 Work led by the amazing Cornelius Braun 🤗 Check out his thread for many more details 🎨 🧑‍💻Code: github.com/RobertTLange/e… 📝 NB:

Just came back home from RL_Conference and I really enjoyed it. Summary: Too many great speakers to name them all, too many great people to name them all, and we won the Best Paper award at the Inductive Biases in RL! 🏆 Thanks to all the great people :-)
