DDT: Decoupled Diffusion Transformer

Introduction

We decouple diffusion transformer into encoder-decoder design, and surpresingly that a more substantial encoder yields performance improvements as model size increases.

We achieves 1.26 FID on ImageNet256x256 Benchmark with DDT-XL/2(22en6de).
We achieves 1.28 FID on ImageNet512x512 Benchmark with DDT-XL/2(22en6de).
As a byproduct, our DDT can reuse encoder among adjacent steps to accelerate inference.

Visualizations

Checkpoints

Waiting for release.

Online Demos

Coming soon.

Usages

We use ADM evaluation suite to report FID.

# for installation
pip install -r requirements.txt

# for training
python main.py fit -c configs/repa_improved_ddt_xlen22de6_256.yaml

# for inference
python main.py predict -c configs/repa_improved_ddt_xlen22de6_256.yaml --ckpt_path=XXX.ckpt
