HDiT is an image generative model that can be trained at high resolutions, such as 1024×1024 pixels, without requiring complex techniques like multiscale architectures or latent autoencoders. It combines the efficiency of convolutional U-Nets with the scalability of Transformer architecture. HDiT outperforms existing models on ImageNet and sets a new state-of-the-art for diffusion models on FFHQ.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
HDiT is a computer program that can create realistic images. It’s special because it can work at very high resolutions, which makes it useful for tasks like generating pictures of people or animals. The model uses a combination of techniques to make it efficient and powerful. HDiT is better than other similar models at creating images.
