Younis and colleagues replace a single Generative Flow Network with multiple independently trained GFlowNets encouraged to specialize in different regions of a compositional search space.

The authors introduce Mixture of GFlowNets (MoG), a community of K policies coupled through a jointly trained soft classifier.
