DALL-E 2 - Pytorch
Implementation of DALL-E 2, OpenAI's updated text-to-image synthesis
Implementation of DALL-E 2, OpenAI's updated text-to-image synthesis neural network, in Pytorch. The main novelty seems to be an extra layer of indirection with the prior network (whether it is an autoregressive transformer or a diffusion network), which predicts an image embedding based on the text embedding from CLIP. Specifically, this repository will only build out the diffusion prior network, as it is the best performing variant (but which incidentally involves a causal transformer as the denoising network) To train DALLE-2 is a 3 step process, with the training of CLIP being the most important. To train CLIP, you can either use x-clip package, or join the LAION discord, where a lot of replication efforts are already underway. Then, you will need to train the decoder, which learns to generate images based on the image embedding coming from the trained CLIP. -

HunyuanImage-3.0
A Powerful Native Multimodal Model for Image Generation
HunyuanImage-3.0 is a powerful, native multimodal text-to-image generation model released by Tencent’s Hunyuan team. It unifies multimodal understanding and generation in a single autoregressive framework, combining text and image modalities seamlessly rather than relying on separate image-only diffusion components. It uses a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture with many expert subnetworks to scale efficiently, deploying only a subset of experts per token, which allows large parameter counts without linear inference cost explosion. The model is intended to be competitive with closed-source image generation systems, aiming for high fidelity, prompt adherence, fine detail, and even “world knowledge” reasoning (i.e. leveraging context, semantics, or common sense in generation). The GitHub repo includes code, scripts, model loading instructions, inference utilities, prompt handling, and integration with standard ML tooling (e.g. Hugging Face / Transformers). -

Stable-Dreamfusion
Text-to-3D & Image-to-3D & Mesh Exportation with NeRF + Diffusion
A pytorch implementation of the text-to-3D model Dreamfusion, powered by the Stable Diffusion text-to-2D model. This project is a work-in-progress and contains lots of differences from the paper. The current generation quality cannot match the results from the original paper, and many prompts still fail badly! Since the Imagen model is not publicly available, we use Stable Diffusion to replace it (implementation from diffusers). Different from Imagen, Stable-Diffusion is a latent diffusion model, which diffuses in a latent space instead of the original image space. Therefore, we need the loss to propagate back from the VAE's encoder part too, which introduces extra time costs in training. We use the multi-resolution grid encoder to implement the NeRF backbone (implementation from torch-ngp), which enables much faster rendering. -
