About
[Updated on 2021-09-19: Highly recommend this blog post on score-based generative modeling by Yang Song (author of several key papers in the references)]. [Updated on 2022-08-27: Added classifier-free guidance , GLIDE , unCLIP and Imagen . [Updated on 2022-08-31: Added latent diffusion model . [Updated on 2024-04-13: Added progressive distillation , consistency models , and the Model Architecture section .
Why it made the leaderboard
A rigorous, continuously-updated technical walkthrough of diffusion models — from the DDPM math to consistency models and latent diffusion — that gives engineers the conceptual grounding to actually build with or fine-tune generative image/video systems.
