Understanding Deep Learning -- Diffusion Models
Diffusion Models
The SDML book club is reading a cool new book by Simon J.D. Prince called Understanding Deep Learning. This week we will discuss chapter 18, about diffusion models. Stable diffusion, DALL-E, and Midjourney are just the tip of the iceberg for what people are doing with diffusion models, as we now see applications like AlphaFold 3 using diffusion.
A free PDF copy of the book can be downloaded from the author's book site (https://udlbook.github.io/udlbook/) or it can be purchased from MIT Press. Everyone is welcome to join us. It is fine if you missed earlier sessions.
Please make sure to read the instructions for joining the event below.
Agenda:
1:00 - 2:00 pm -- Discussion of the book chapter (both in person & Zoom)
