DALL-E is a large AI model that can generate images from text descriptions. It was trained on a dataset of text-image pairs using a two-stage process: 1) A discrete variational autoencoder (dVAE) learned a visual codebook to represent images as discrete latent codes, and 2) A Transformer model learned the joint distribution between text captions and latent image codes to generate new images. The model achieved impressive zero-shot image generation capabilities, generalizing to new concepts and combining ideas in novel ways, as demonstrated through both quantitative and qualitative evaluation.
Tutorial on Theory and Application of Generative Adversarial NetworksMLReview
Description
Generative adversarial network (GAN) has recently emerged as a promising generative modeling approach. It consists of a generative network and a discriminative network. Through the competition between the two networks, it learns to model the data distribution. In addition to modeling the image/video distribution in computer vision problems, the framework finds use in defining visual concept using examples. To a large extent, it eliminates the need of hand-crafting objective functions for various computer vision problems. In this tutorial, we will present an overview of generative adversarial network research. We will cover several recent theoretical studies as well as training techniques and will also cover several vision applications of generative adversarial networks.

Generating representations is the ultimate act of creativity. Recent advancements in neural networks (and in processing power) brought us the capability to perform regression against complex samples like images and audio. In this presentation we show the underlying mechanics of media generation from latent space representation of abstract visual ideas, real embodiment of “Platonic” concepts, with Variational Autoencoders, Generative Adversarial Networks, neural style transfer and PixelRNN/CNN along with current practical applications like DeepFake.
生成式對抗網路 (Generative Adversarial Network, GAN) 顯然是深度學習領域的下一個熱點,Yann LeCun 說這是機器學習領域這十年來最有趣的想法 (the most interesting idea in the last 10 years in ML),又說這是有史以來最酷的東西 (the coolest thing since sliced bread)。生成式對抗網路解決了什麼樣的問題呢?在機器學習領域,回歸 (regression) 和分類 (classification) 這兩項任務的解法人們已經不再陌生,但是如何讓機器更進一步創造出有結構的複雜物件 (例如:圖片、文句) 仍是一大挑戰。用生成式對抗網路,機器已經可以畫出以假亂真的人臉,也可以根據一段敘述文字,自己畫出對應的圖案,甚至還可以畫出二次元人物頭像 (左邊的動畫人物頭像就是機器自己生成的)。本課程希望能帶大家認識生成式對抗網路這個深度學習最前沿的技術。
This document provides an outline and introduction to deep generative models. It discusses what generative models are, their applications like image and speech generation/enhancement, and different types of generative models including PixelRNN/CNN, variational autoencoders, and generative adversarial networks. Variational autoencoders are explained in detail, covering how they introduce a restriction in the latent space z to generate new data points by sampling from the latent prior distribution.
This document provides an overview of deep generative models including generative and discriminative models, autoencoders, variational autoencoders, generative adversarial networks, and conditional generative models. It discusses applications of generative models such as image translation, denoising, and text generation. Specific generative models covered include VAEs, GANs, DRAW, fully convolutional networks, and CycleGAN. The document also notes challenges with training GANs and potential applications of generative models in understanding the real world and artificial general intelligence.
Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are a class of machine learning frameworks where two neural networks contest with each other in a game. A generator network generates new data instances, while a discriminator network evaluates them for authenticity, classifying them as real or generated. This adversarial process allows the generator to improve over time and generate highly realistic samples that can pass for real data. The document provides an overview of GANs and their variants, including DCGAN, InfoGAN, EBGAN, and ACGAN models. It also discusses techniques for training more stable GANs and escaping issues like mode collapse.
The document introduces various computer vision topics including convolutional neural networks, popular CNN architectures, data augmentation, transfer learning, object detection, neural style transfer, generative adversarial networks, and variational autoencoders. It provides overviews of each topic and discusses concepts such as how convolutions work, common CNN architectures like ResNet and VGG, why data augmentation is important, how transfer learning can utilize pre-trained models, how object detection algorithms like YOLO work, the content and style losses used in neural style transfer, how GANs use generators and discriminators, and how VAEs describe images with probability distributions. The document aims to discuss these topics at a practical level and provide insights through examples.

Deep learning is a hot area of machine learning named one of the "Breakthrough Technologies of 2013" by MIT Technology Review. The basic ideas extend neural network research from past decades and incorporate new discoveries in statistical machine learning and neuroscience. The results are new learning architectures and algorithms that promise disruptive advances in automatic feature engineering, pattern discovery, data modeling and artificial intelligence. Empirical results from real world applications and benchmarking routinely demonstrate state-of-the-art performance across diverse problems including: speech recognition, object detection, image understanding and machine translation. The technology is employed commercially today, notably in many popular Google products such as Street View, Google+ Image Search and Android Voice Recognition.
In this talk, we will present an overview of deep learning for data scientists: what it is, how it works, what it can do, and why it is important. We will review several real world applications and discuss some of the key hurdles to mainstream adoption. We will conclude by discussing our experiences implementing and running deep learning experiments on our own hardware data science appliance.

The document summarizes the Batch Normalization technique presented in the paper "Batch Normalization: Accelerating Deep Network Training by Reducing Internal Covariate Shift". Batch Normalization aims to address the issue of internal covariate shift in deep neural networks by normalizing layer inputs to have zero mean and unit variance. It works by computing normalization statistics for each mini-batch and applying them to the inputs. This helps in faster and more stable training of deep networks by reducing the distribution shift across layers. The paper presented ablation studies on MNIST and ImageNet datasets showing Batch Normalization improves training speed and accuracy compared to prior techniques.
This document provides an outline and overview of training convolutional neural networks. It discusses update rules like stochastic gradient descent, momentum, and Adam. It also covers techniques like data augmentation, transfer learning, and monitoring the training process. The goal of training a CNN is to optimize its weights and parameters to correctly classify images from the training set by minimizing output error through backpropagation and updating weights.
GAN Deep Learning Approaches to Image Processing Applications (1).pptxRMDAcademicCoordinat
This document discusses generative adversarial networks (GANs) and their applications to image processing. It begins with an overview of machine learning techniques including supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning. It then describes how GANs work using two competing neural networks - a generator that produces synthetic images and a discriminator that evaluates them as real or fake. The goal of the GAN training process is for the generator to improve so its samples cannot be distinguished from real data. In the end, GANs can be used for tasks like random image generation and image-to-image translation.
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) are a class of unsupervised machine learning models used to generate new data with the same statistics as the training set. GANs work by having two neural networks, a generator and discriminator, compete against each other. The generator tries to generate fake images that look real, while the discriminator tries to tell real images apart from fake ones. This adversarial process allows the generator to produce highly realistic images. The paper proposes GANs and introduces their objective functions and training procedure to generate images similar to samples from the training data distribution.
This document provides an overview of deep generative models for images. It discusses generative adversarial networks (GANs) which define generative modeling as an adversarial game between a generator and discriminator. Conditional GANs can generate images from text or translate between image domains. Variational autoencoders (VAEs) learn latent representations of the data. Fully convolutional models use transposed convolutions in the decoder. CycleGAN can perform unpaired image-to-image translation using cycle consistency losses. Overall, generative models aim to understand data distributions in order to generate new, realistic samples.
This document discusses and compares several next generation artificial intelligence techniques, including capsule networks, transfer learning, deep reinforcement learning, unsupervised/semi-supervised deep learning, meta-learning, swarm intelligence, and differentiable neural computers. It provides brief descriptions of each technique and potential applications, such as using capsule networks for text analytics, transfer learning for robotics, deep reinforcement learning for banking product recommendations, and swarm intelligence for robotics and fraud analytics. Examples and diagrams are included to help explain how some of the techniques work.
This document outlines an agenda for a CTO summit on machine learning and deep learning topics. It includes discussions on CNN and RNN architectures, word embeddings, entity embeddings, reinforcement learning, and tips for training deep neural networks. Specific applications mentioned include self-driving cars, image captioning, language modeling, and modeling store sales. It also includes summaries of papers and links to code examples.

𝑑𝒙 = 𝑓 𝒙, 𝑡 𝑑𝑡 + 𝑔 𝑡 𝑑𝒘
• There is a backward diffusion process that reverse the time
𝑑𝒙 = 𝑓 𝑥, 𝑡 − 𝑔 𝑡 2∇𝑥 log 𝑝(𝒙, 𝑡) 𝑑𝑡 + 𝑔 𝑡 𝑑𝒘
• If we know the time-dependent score function ∇𝑥 log 𝑝(𝒙, 𝑡)
• Then we can reverse the diffusion process.

20. Training diffusion model =
Learning to denoise
• If we can learn a score model
𝑓𝜃 𝑥, 𝑡 ≈ ∇ log 𝑝(𝑥, 𝑡)
• Then we can denoise samples, by running the reverse diffusion equation. 𝑥𝑡 → 𝑥𝑡−1
• Score model 𝑓𝜃: 𝒳 × 0,1 → 𝒳
• A time dependent vector field over 𝑥 space.
• Training objective: Infer noise from a noised sample
𝑥 ∼ 𝑝 𝑥 , 𝜖 ∼ 𝒩 0, 𝐼 , 𝑡 ∈ [0,1]
min 𝜖 + 𝑓𝜃 𝑥 + 𝜎𝑡
𝜖, 𝑡 2
2
• Add Gaussian noise 𝜖 to an image 𝑥 with scale 𝜎𝑡, learn to infer the noise 𝜎.
21. Conditional denoising
• Infer noise from a noised sample, based on a condition 𝑦
• 𝑥, 𝑦 ∼ 𝑝 𝑥, 𝑦 , 𝜖 ∼ 𝒩 0, 𝐼 , 𝑡 ∈ [0,1]
• min 𝜖 − 𝑓𝜃 𝑥 + 𝜎𝑡
𝜖, 𝑦, 𝑡 2
2
• Conditional score model 𝑓𝜃: 𝒳 × 𝒴 × 0,1 → 𝒳
• Use Unet as to model image to image mapping
• Modulate the Unet with condition (text prompt).
23. GAN
• One shot generation. Fast.
• Harder to control in one pass.
• Adversarial min-max objective. Can
collapse.
Diffusion
• Multi-iteration generation. Slow.
• Easier to control during generation.
• Simple objective, no adversary in
training.
Diffusion vs GAN / VAE
24. Activation maximization ~
Reverse Diffusion
• For a neuron, activation maximization
can be realized by gradient ascent
𝑧𝑡+1 ← 𝑧𝑡 + ∇𝑓 𝐺 𝑧𝑡 + 𝜖
• Homologous to the reverse diffusion
equation.
• Idea: Neuron activation defines a
Generative model on image space.
26. Convolutional Neural Network
• CNN parametrizes function
over images
• Motivation
• Features are translational
invariant
• Extract feature at different
scale / abstraction level
• Key modules
• Convolution
• Downsamping (Max-pool)
VGG
Features of larger scale (larger RF)
Higher abstraction level.
27. CNN + inverted CNN ⇒ UNet
• Inverted CNN
(generator) can
generate images.
• CNN + inverted CNN
could model Image →
Image function.

30. Note: Add Time Dependency
• The score function is time-dependent.
• Target: 𝑠 𝑥, 𝑡 = ∇𝑥 log 𝑝(𝑥, 𝑡)
• Add time dependency
• Assume time dependency is spatially
homogeneous.
• Add one scalar value per channel 𝑓(𝑡)
• Parametrize 𝑓(𝑡) by MLP / linear of Fourier basis.

• Meaning of word depends on context,
not always the same.
• “I book a ticket to buy that book.”
• Word vectors should depend on context.

56. Diffusion in Latent Space
Adding in AutoEncoder
Rombach, R., Blattmann, A., Lorenz, D., Esser, P., & Ommer, B. (2022). High-
resolution image synthesis with latent diffusion models, CVPR
57. Diffusion in latent space
• Motivation:
• Natural images are high dimensional
• but have many redundant details that could be
compressed / statistically filled out
• Division of labor
• Diffusion model -> Generate low resolution sketch
• AutoEncoder -> Fill out high resolution details
• Train a VAE model to compress images into latent
space.
• 𝑥 → 𝑧 → 𝑥
• Train diffusion models in latent space of 𝑧.

58. Spatial Compression Tradeoff
• LDM-{𝑓}. 𝑓 = Spatial downsampling factor
• Higher 𝑓 leads to faster sampling, with degraded image quality (FID ↑)
• Fewer sampling steps leads to faster sampling, with lower quality (FID ↑)
Face
CelebA-HQ ImageNet
59. Spatial Compression Tradeoff
• LDM-{𝑓}. 𝑓 = Spatial downsampling factor
• Too little compression 𝑓 = 1,2 or too much compression 𝑓 = 32, makes
diffusion hard to train.
60. Details in Stable Diffusion
• In stable diffusion, spatial downsampling 𝑓 = 8
• 𝑥 is (3, 512, 512) image tensor
• 𝑧 is (4, 64, 64) latent tensor
61. Regularizing the Latent Space
• KL regularizer
• Similar to VAE, make latent distribution like Gaussian distribution.
• VQ regularizer
• Make the latent representation quantized to be a set of discrete tokens.
63. Large Data Training
• SD is trained on ~ 2 Billion image – caption (English) pairs.
• Scraped from web, filtered by CLIP.
