Part 1 of 2: Generative AI with Diffusion Models
This two-part workshop will dive deeper into denoising diffusion models, which are a popular choice for text-to-image pipelines.
Applications of this technology include creative content generation, data augmentation, simulation and planning, anomaly detection, drug discovery, personalized recommendations, and more. Each session is roughly divided into 3 hours of active teaching and 1 hour of extra Q&A.
Three components below will spread over the two sessions:
- U-Net architecture and training a model to remove noise from an image.
- Autoencoders and variational autoencoders and then go toward diffusion models.
- Diffusion models and how to train them.
At the end of course, you can obtain a NVIDIA Certificate if you pass the assessment.
