Experiments for training Auto Regressive models for text-to-image generation
This dataset is derived from conceptual captions (CC3M) which contains roughly 3.3M image and caption pairs. For images we use 1d-tokenizer by bytedance which tokenizes a 256 * 256 image into 32 tokens while still achieving SOTA fidelity ratio. For text we train a BPE based tokenizer on the image captions dataset with a vocab size set to 30K, where 4096 tokens where used to represent images, 9 to represent some special tokens and the remaining 25895 tokens for text

Inference
For generating images download and save the image_tokenizer and checkpoint-20000 in the root dir of this repo then run infer.py with your prompt
Training Procedure
For training we prompt the model to generate an image based on a text such as: "a river has burst it 's banks and has spread out onto arable farmland alongside<|startofimage|><|image:2931|><|image:560|><|image:763|><|image:1539|><|image:3161|><|image:1997|><|image:3376|><|image:510|><|image:3036|><|image:1585|><|image:1853|><|image:1970|><|image:2687|><|image:1436|><|image:2213|><|image:3968|><|image:3999|><|image:877|><|image:725|><|image:3013|><|image:438|><|image:3159|><|image:2936|><|image:3003|><|image:2261|><|image:2137|><|image:3821|><|image:1513|><|image:3536|><|image:311|><|image:494|><|image:413|><|endofimage|>". We use use cross entropy loss with logits masked for the audio tokens as it showed performance improvements for speech-to-text tasks and employ the standard cross entorpy loss over the masked logits
