*Who:  *    Takuma Yoneda, TTIC



*Title:*      Distribution Matching in the Context of Robotics
*Abstract: *The main theme of the thesis is how different distribution
learning approaches, diffusion models and adversarial training, can benefit
various applications in robotics with their unique characteristics.
The topics include learning intuitive physics through block stacking,
shared autonomy without human-in-the-loop pipeline, and domain adaptation
to bridge sim-to-real gaps.
