Applying Guidance in a Limited Interval Improves Sample and Distribution Quality in Diffusion Models

no code implementations11 Apr 2024 Tuomas Kynkäänniemi, Miika Aittala, Tero Karras, Samuli Laine, Timo Aila, Jaakko Lehtinen

We show that guidance is clearly harmful toward the beginning of the chain (high noise levels), largely unnecessary toward the end (low noise levels), and only beneficial in the middle.

Disentangling Random and Cyclic Effects in Time-Lapse Sequences

1 code implementation4 Jul 2022 Erik Härkönen, Miika Aittala, Tuomas Kynkäänniemi, Samuli Laine, Timo Aila, Jaakko Lehtinen

We introduce the problem of disentangling time-lapse sequences in a way that allows separate, after-the-fact control of overall trends, cyclic effects, and random effects in the images, and describe a technique based on data-driven generative models that achieves this goal.

Generating Long Videos of Dynamic Scenes

1 code implementation7 Jun 2022 Tim Brooks, Janne Hellsten, Miika Aittala, Ting-Chun Wang, Timo Aila, Jaakko Lehtinen, Ming-Yu Liu, Alexei A. Efros, Tero Karras

Existing video generation methods often fail to produce new content as a function of time while maintaining consistencies expected in real environments, such as plausible dynamics and object persistence.

Elucidating the Design Space of Diffusion-Based Generative Models

12 code implementations1 Jun 2022 Tero Karras, Miika Aittala, Timo Aila, Samuli Laine

We argue that the theory and practice of diffusion-based generative models are currently unnecessarily convoluted and seek to remedy the situation by presenting a design space that clearly separates the concrete design choices.

The Role of ImageNet Classes in Fréchet Inception Distance

1 code implementation11 Mar 2022 Tuomas Kynkäänniemi, Tero Karras, Miika Aittala, Timo Aila, Jaakko Lehtinen

Fr\'echet Inception Distance (FID) is the primary metric for ranking models in data-driven generative modeling.

no code implementations ICCV 2021 Prafull Sharma, Miika Aittala, Yoav Y. Schechner, Antonio Torralba, Gregory W. Wornell, William T. Freeman, Fredo Durand

We present a passive non-line-of-sight method that infers the number of people or activity of a person from the observation of a blank wall in an unknown room.

Alias-Free Generative Adversarial Networks

7 code implementations NeurIPS 2021 Tero Karras, Miika Aittala, Samuli Laine, Erik Härkönen, Janne Hellsten, Jaakko Lehtinen, Timo Aila

We observe that despite their hierarchical convolutional nature, the synthesis process of typical generative adversarial networks depends on absolute pixel coordinates in an unhealthy manner.

We introduce a general-purpose differentiable ray tracer, which, to our knowledge, is the first comprehensive solution that is able to compute derivatives of scalar functions over a rendered image with respect to arbitrary scene parameters such as camera pose, scene geometry, materials, and lighting parameters.

Noise2Noise: Learning Image Restoration without Clean Data

21 code implementations ICML 2018 Jaakko Lehtinen, Jacob Munkberg, Jon Hasselgren, Samuli Laine, Tero Karras, Miika Aittala, Timo Aila

We apply basic statistical reasoning to signal reconstruction by machine learning -- learning to map corrupted observations to clean signals -- with a simple and powerful conclusion: it is possible to learn to restore images by only looking at corrupted examples, at performance at and sometimes exceeding training using clean data, without explicit image priors or likelihood models of the corruption.
