In this work we explore a new framework for approximate Bayesian inference in large datasets based on stochastic control (i.e. Schr\"odinger bridges). We advocate stochastic control as a finite time and low variance alternative to popular steady-state methods such as stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD). Furthermore, we discuss and adapt the existing theoretical guarantees of this framework and establish connections to already existing VI routines in SDE-based models.

  1. Path Integral Optimiser: Global Optimisation via Neural Schr\"odinger-F\"ollmer Diffusion

    cs.LG 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A neural Schrödinger-Föllmer diffusion, trained like the Path Integral Sampler, is repurposed as a global optimizer, with new conditional convergence bounds and competitive results on small tasks only.
