Does Uniform Discrete Diffusion Need Time?

Uniform discrete diffusion models (UDMs) commonly use explicit time conditioning, but we find that it can often be unnecessary in practice. In this paper, we first show that the population-optimal UDM predictor generally depends on time: time controls how much the model should trust the observed context. We then show t …

LYRIC: Language-Driven Physics-Based Character Control for Contact-Rich Whole-Body Object Interaction

We present LYRIC, a generative flow-matching controller for language-driven physics-based contact-rich interaction control, that enables simulated characters to perform contact-rich whole-body object interactions from a free-form language instruction and a sparse terminal object goal. To obtain reliable expert trajecto …
