We first de velop a diffusion mechanism defined intrinsically on the SE(3) manifold\, enabling the efficient sampling. To address the critical issue of mode col lapse in energy-based samplers\, we introduce a novel Importance Weighted Score Matching method that provably improves coverage of complex\, multi-m odal distributions. Finally\, we extend these principles to infer underlyi ng dynamical systems directly from incomplete and scattered training data. Collectively\, this work bridges geometric consistency\, statistical reli ability\, and learning from partial observations to advance the frontiers of generative and sampling models.\n\nSpeaker\n\nTianshu Yu is currently a n assistant professor at School of Data Science\, The Chinese University o f Hong Kong\, Shenzhen (CUHK-Shenzhen). He leads Learning Of Graph & Optim ization Lab (LOGO Lab) and is now a visiting assistant professor at MILA - Quebec AI Institute. Tianshu serves as the Co-Editor-in-Chief of Science Digitalization (AIMS Publishing). His research interest generally covers M achine Learning for Optimization (ML4Opt) and AI4Science\, with a particul ar forcus of bringing together machine learning and PDEs.\n\nhttps://mcgil l.zoom.us/j/87181846336\n\nMeeting ID: 871 8184 6336\n\nPasscode: None\n DTSTART:20251107T203000Z DTEND:20251107T213000Z LOCATION:Room 1104\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Tianshu Yu (The Chinese University of Hong Kong\, Shenzhen) URL:/biology/channels/event/tianshu-yu-chinese-univers ity-hong-kong-shenzhen-368694 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
