The proposed two-stage framework, SODP, leverages sub-optimal data to learn a diffusion planner capable of generalizing to various downstream tasks. In the pre-training stage, a foundation diffusion planner is trained to extract planning capabilities by modeling the versatile distribution of multi-task trajectories. This model is then fine-tuned using RL-based methods with task-specific rewards for each downstream task, requiring only a small amount of data. The framework demonstrates superior performance on meta-world and adroit tasks, outperforming state-of-the-art methods.

SODP is a new way to teach machines how to plan and make decisions. Usually, we need a lot of human effort to collect information or design special rewards for the machine to learn. SODP uses existing data that might not be perfect, but it’s better than nothing. The framework has two stages: first, it trains a model to understand general planning abilities by looking at many examples of different tasks. Then, for each specific task, it fine-tunes the model using small amounts of special reward information. This approach shows promise in helping machines make better decisions.
