Diffusion Models Beat GANs on Image Synthesis - ML Coding Series - Part 2
Offered By: Aleksa Gordić - The AI Epiphany via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Dive into an in-depth video tutorial exploring the paper "Diffusion Models Beat GANs on Image Synthesis" and its accompanying code. Learn about U-Net architecture improvements, classifier guidance, and the intuition behind these concepts. Explore the training process for noise-aware classifiers, visualize timestep conditioning, and understand the core sampling logic. Discover how to implement classifier guidance, including the mean shift method, and gain insights into the trade-offs between diversity and quality in image synthesis. Examine a minor bug in the original code and follow along with practical coding examples throughout this comprehensive machine learning session.
