AI Technology & Industry Review
In a new paper JEN-1: Text-Guided Universal Music Generation with Omnidirectional Diffusion Models, a Futureverse research team presents JEN-1, a universal framework that combines bidirectional and unidirectional modes to generate high-quality music conditioned on either text or music representations.
In a new paper AnimateDiff: Animate Your Personalized Text-to-Image Diffusion Models without Specific Tuning, a research team presents AnimateDiff, a general and practical framework that is able to generate animated images for any personalized text-to-image (T2I) model, without any extra training and model-specified tuning.
In the new paper DiffFit: Unlocking Transferability of Large Diffusion Models via Simple Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning, a Huawei Noah’s Ark Lab research team introduces DiffFit, a parameter-efficient fine-tuning technique that enables fast adaptation to new domains for diffusion image generation. Compared to full fine-tuning approaches, DiffFit achieves 2x training speed-ups while using only ~0.12 percent of trainable parameters.
Diffusion-based AI models continue to wow the world with remarkable image, audio, and video generation capabilities. This performance however comesContinue Reading
In the new paper RealFusion: 360° Reconstruction of Any Object from a Single Image, an Oxford University research team leverages a diffusion model to generate 360° reconstructions of objects from a single image. Their RealFusion approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on monocular 3D reconstruction benchmarks.
A Hugging Face team collaborates with researcher Simo Ryu to provide a general approach that enables users to implement Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) in diffusers via both Dreambooth and full fine-tuning methods.
In the new paper Dreamix: Video Diffusion Models Are General Video Editors, a team from Google Research and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem presents Dreamix, a novel approach that leverages a video diffusion model (VDM) to enable text-based motion and appearance video editing.
In the new paper Lossy Compression with Gaussian Diffusion, a Google Research team presents DiffC, a novel and simple lossy compression method that relies only on an unconditionally trained diffusion generative model and achieves state-of-the-art image compression results despite lacking an encoder transform.
In the new paper Photorealistic Text-to-Image Diffusion Models with Deep Language Understanding, a Google Brain research team presents Imagen, a text-to-image diffusion model that combines deep language understanding and photorealistic image generation capabilities to achieve a new state-of-the-art FID score of 7.27 on the COCO dataset.
