Trouble using clip, loss converges at 0.8

username: kim1
cooked: <p>Hi,</p>
<p>I’m trying to train a network that will learn to manipulate an image (e.g. change hair color). To guide the network I use the clip model, and the mapping is above the latent space of vqgan.</p>
<p>When training, the loss converges to 0.8. Conversely when the loss consists only MSE term between the encoding and the mapping, it drops to 0. I can’t find the reason why the network gets entangled when using clip loss.</p>
<p>I’ve checked different batch sizes, different learning rates, tried to add clip/vqgan models to the network itself. Nothing works.</p>
<p>Would appreciate help!</p>
