Implementation of Imagen, Google's Text-to-Image Neural Network that beats DALL-E2, in Pytorch. It is the new SOTA for text-to-image synthesis.
Architecturally, it is actually much simpler than DALL-E2. It composes of a cascading DDPM conditioned on text embeddings from a large pretrained T5 model (attention network). It also contains dynamic clipping for improved classifier free guidance, noise level conditioning, and a memory efficient unet design.
It appears neither CLIP nor prior network is needed after all. And so research continues.

images.shape # (3, 3, 256, 256)- use huggingface transformers for T5-small text embeddings
- add dynamic thresholding
- add dynamic thresholding DALLE2 and video-diffusion repository as well
- allow for one to set T5-large (and perhaps small factory method to take in any huggingface transformer)
- add the lowres noise level with the pseudocode in appendix, and figure out what is this sweep they do at inference time
- port over some training code from DALLE2
- need to be able to use a different noise schedule per unet (cosine was used for base, but linear for SR)
- separate unet into base unet and SR3 unet
- build whatever efficient unet they came up with
- figure out if learned variance was used at all, and remove it if it was inconsequential
- switch to continuous timesteps instead of discretized, as it seems that is what they used for all stages
