This paper explores ways to reduce the computational and storage costs of large-scale text-to-image diffusion models while maintaining their quality. The authors investigate quantization methods to speed up inference time, focusing on convolution layers which account for a significant portion of computations in these models. They propose a finer-grained group-wise quantization approach that can handle fully quantized Winograd convolutions and reduce range differences in the Winograd domain. This method allows for near-lossless quality (FID and CLIP scores) in text-to-image generation tasks, outperforming state-of-the-art methods in image classification tasks on ResNet18 and ResNet-34.

This paper is about making big computers work faster without losing their ability to create realistic images. The authors want to make these computers more efficient so they can be used for many different tasks. They are trying to find a way to make the computer’s calculations faster and use less memory, while still keeping the quality of the images good. They have developed a new method that works well for both image generation and classification tasks.
