Title: End-to-end representation learning in generative models
Abstract: There are lots of different explorations of how to best train image generation models, from pixel-space generation, latent diffusion models, to representation learning alignment, representation auto-encoders and the recent JIT. In this talk, I will first discuss our recent works on end-to-end image generation which trains the VAE and generative model together. Then, I will draw comparisons and insights between our work and existing methods in terms of latent space quality, the usefulness of ImageNet training, and T2I pre-training.
