Overview
Thanks to improvements in computing power and scientific theory, Generative AI is more accessible than ever before.Generative AI will play a significant role across industries and will gain significant importance due to its numerous applications such as Creative Content Generation, Data Augmentation, Simulation and Planning, Anomaly Detection, Drug Discovery, and Personalized Recommendations etc. In this course we will take a deeper dive on denoising diffusion models, which are a popular choice for text-to-image pipelines, disrupting several industries.
Skills Gained
By participating in this workshop, you’ll learn:
- Build a U-Net to generate images from pure noise
- Improve the quality of generated images with the Denoising Diffusion process
- Compare Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPMs) with Denoising Diffusion Implicit Models (DDIMs)
- Control the image output with context embeddings
- Generate images from English text-prompts using CLIP
Prerequisites
- Good understanding of PyTorch
- Good understanding of deep learning
Course Details
Workshop Outline
Introduction
From U-Nets to Diffusion
- Build a U-Net, a type of autoencoder for images.
- Learn about transposed convolution to increase the size of an image.
- Learn about non-sequential neural networks and residual connections.
- Experiment with feeding noise through the U-Net to generate new images
Control with Context
- Learn how to alter the output of the diffusion process by adding context embeddings
- Add additional model optimizations such as
- Sinusoidal Position Embeddings
- The GELU activation function
- Attention
Text-to-Image with CLIP
- Walk through the CLIP architecture to learn how it associates image embeddings with text embeddings
- Use CLIP to train a text-to-image diffusion model
State-of-the-art Models
- Review various state-of-the-art generative ai models and connect them to the concepts learned in class
- Discuss prompt engineering and how to better influence the output of generative AI models
- Learn about content authenticity and how to build trustworthy models
