unCLIP
Overview
Hierarchical Text-Conditional Image Generation with CLIP Latents by Aditya Ramesh, Prafulla Dhariwal, Alex Nichol, Casey Chu, Mark Chen
The abstract of the paper is the following:
Contrastive models like CLIP have been shown to learn robust representations of images that capture both semantics and style. To leverage these representations for image generation, we propose a two-stage model: a prior that generates a CLIP image embedding given a text caption, and a decoder that generates an image conditioned on the image embedding. We show that explicitly generating image representations improves image diversity with minimal loss in photorealism and caption similarity. Our decoders conditioned on image representations can also produce variations of an image that preserve both its semantics and style, while varying the non-essential details absent from the image representation. Moreover, the joint embedding space of CLIP enables language-guided image manipulations in a zero-shot fashion. We use diffusion models for the decoder and experiment with both autoregressive and diffusion models for the prior, finding that the latter are computationally more efficient and produce higher-quality samples.
The unCLIP model in diffusers comes from kakaobrain’s karlo and the original codebase can be found here. Additionally, lucidrains has a DALL-E 2 recreation here.

Parameters

Pipeline for text-to-image generation using unCLIP
This model inherits from DiffusionPipeline. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the library implements for all the pipelines (such as downloading or saving, running on a particular device, etc.)
__call__

Parameters
-
prompt (
str
orList[str]
) — The prompt or prompts to guide the image generation. -
num_images_per_prompt (
int
, optional, defaults to 1) — The number of images to generate per prompt. -
prior_num_inference_steps (
int
, optional, defaults to 25) — The number of denoising steps for the prior. More denoising steps usually lead to a higher quality image at the expense of slower inference. -
decoder_num_inference_steps (
int
, optional, defaults to 25) — The number of denoising steps for the decoder. More denoising steps usually lead to a higher quality image at the expense of slower inference. -
super_res_num_inference_steps (
int
, optional, defaults to 7) — The number of denoising steps for super resolution. More denoising steps usually lead to a higher quality image at the expense of slower inference. -
generator (
torch.Generator
, optional) — One or a list of torch generator(s) to make generation deterministic. -
prior_latents (
torch.FloatTensor
of shape (batch size, embeddings dimension), optional) — Pre-generated noisy latents to be used as inputs for the prior. -
decoder_latents (
torch.FloatTensor
of shape (batch size, channels, height, width), optional) — Pre-generated noisy latents to be used as inputs for the decoder. -
super_res_latents (
torch.FloatTensor
of shape (batch size, channels, super res height, super res width), optional) — Pre-generated noisy latents to be used as inputs for the decoder. -
prior_guidance_scale (
float
, optional, defaults to 4.0) — Guidance scale as defined in Classifier-Free Diffusion Guidance.guidance_scale
is defined asw
of equation 2. of Imagen Paper. Guidance scale is enabled by settingguidance_scale > 1
. Higher guidance scale encourages to generate images that are closely linked to the textprompt
, usually at the expense of lower image quality. -
decoder_guidance_scale (
float
, optional, defaults to 4.0) — Guidance scale as defined in Classifier-Free Diffusion Guidance.guidance_scale
is defined asw
of equation 2. of Imagen Paper. Guidance scale is enabled by settingguidance_scale > 1
. Higher guidance scale encourages to generate images that are closely linked to the textprompt
, usually at the expense of lower image quality. -
output_type (
str
, optional, defaults to"pil"
) — The output format of the generated image. Choose between PIL:PIL.Image.Image
ornp.array
. -
return_dict (
bool
, optional, defaults toTrue
) — Whether or not to return a ImagePipelineOutput instead of a plain tuple.
