Implementation of Imagen, Google's Text-to-Image Neural Network that beats DALL-E2, in Pytorch. It is the new SOTA for text-to-image synthesis.
Architecturally, it is actually much simpler than DALL-E2. It consists of a cascading DDPM conditioned on text embeddings from a large pretrained T5 model (attention network). It also contains dynamic clipping for improved classifier free guidance, noise level conditioning, and a memory efficient unet design.
It appears neither CLIP nor prior network is needed after all. And so research continues.

Imagen uses an algorithm called Classifier Free Guidance. When sampling, you apply a scale to the conditioning (text in this case) of greater than 1.0.
Researcher Netruk44 have reported 5-10 to be optimal, but anything greater than 10 to break.
trainer.sample(texts = [
'a cloud in the shape of a roman gladiator'
], cond_scale = 5.) # <-- cond_scale is the conditioning scale, needs to be greater than 1.0 to be better than average- Are there any pretrained models yet?
Not at the moment but one will likely be trained and open sourced within the year, if not sooner. If you would like to participate, you can join the community of artificial neural network trainers at Laion (discord link is in the Readme above) and start collaborating.
-
StabilityAI for the generous sponsorship, as well as my other sponsors out there
-
🤗 Huggingface for their amazing transformers library. The text encoder portion is pretty much taken care of because of them
-
Jorge Gomes for helping out with the T5 loading code and advice on the correct T5 version
-
Katherine Crowson, for her beautiful code, which helped me understand the continuous time version of gaussian diffusion
-
You? It isn't done yet, chip in if you are a researcher or skilled ML engineer
- use huggingface transformers for T5-small text embeddings
- add dynamic thresholding
- add dynamic thresholding DALLE2 and video-diffusion repository as well
- allow for one to set T5-large (and perhaps small factory method to take in any huggingface transformer)
- add the lowres noise level with the pseudocode in appendix, and figure out what is this sweep they do at inference time
- port over some training code from DALLE2
- need to be able to use a different noise schedule per unet (cosine was used for base, but linear for SR)
- just make one master-configurable unet
- complete resnet block (biggan inspired? but with groupnorm) - complete self attention
- complete conditioning embedding block (and make it completely configurable, whether it be attention, film etc)
- consider using perceiver-resampler from https://github.com/lucidrains/flamingo-pytorch in place of attention pooling
- add attention pooling option, in addition to cross attention and film
- add optional cosine decay schedule with warmup, for each unet, to trainer
- switch to continuous timesteps instead of discretized, as it seems that is what they used for all stages - first figure out the linear noise schedule case from the variational ddpm paper https://openreview.net/forum?id=2LdBqxc1Yv
- figure out log(snr) for alpha cosine noise schedule.
- suppress the transformers warning because only T5encoder is used
- allow setting for using linear attention on layers where full attention cannot be used
- force unets in continuous time case to use non-fouriered conditions (just pass the log(snr) through an MLP with optional layernorms), as that is what i have working locally
- removed learned variance
- add p2 loss weighting for continuous time
- make sure cascading ddpm can be trained without text condition, and make sure both continuous and discrete time gaussian diffusion works
- use primer's depthwise convs on the qkv projections in linear attention (or use token shifting before projections) - also use new dropout proposed by bayesformer, as it seems to work well with linear attention
- explore skip layer excitation in unet decoder
- take care of huggingface accelerate integration
- build out CLI tool for training, resuming training, and one-line generation of image
- extend to video generation, using axial time attention as in Ho's video ddpm paper
