"Improved Vector Quantized Diffusion Models. (arXiv:2205.16007v2 [cs.CV] UPDATED)" — Two techniques to improve the sample quality of VQ-Diffusion. 1) Explore classifier-free guidance sampling for discrete denoising diffusion models to propose a more general and effective implementation of classifier-free guidance. 2) Use a high-quality inference strategy to alleviate the joint distribution issue in VQ-Diffusion.

Sitting with a warm, furry, relaxed puppy on your lap is the absolute best way to wait for the sun to set.
For your viewing pleasure, here is the sunset on the beautiful north coast of California. Almost in real time.
Mastodon was a great find for me when I needed an outlet most.
Sending feel-good vibes your way.
