This is a minimal implementation of Boris Dayma's [DALL·E Mini ](https://github.com/borisdayma/dalle-mini ) in PyTorch. It has been stripped to the bare essentials necessary for doing inference. The only third party dependencies are numpy and torch.

It currently takes **7.4 seconds** to generate an image with DALL·E Mega with PyTorch on a standard GPU runtime in Colab

The flax model, and the code for coverting it to torch, have been moved [here ](https://github.com/kuprel/min-dalle-flax ).

### Install
2022-06-27 17:51:48 +00:00
2022-07-01 22:32:48 +00:00
```bash
2022-07-01 22:30:22 +00:00
$ pip install min-dalle
```
2022-06-27 21:26:05 +00:00
2022-06-28 00:59:39 +00:00
### Usage
2022-06-27 21:28:40 +00:00
2022-07-01 22:30:22 +00:00
Use the python script `image_from_text.py` to generate images from the command line.
To load a model once and generate multiple times, initialize `MinDalleTorch` , then call `generate_image` with some text and a seed.
2022-07-01 22:32:48 +00:00
```python
2022-07-01 22:30:22 +00:00
from min_dalle import MinDalleTorch
model = MinDalleTorch(
is_mega=True,
is_reusable=True,
models_root='./pretrained'
)
image = model.generate_image("court sketch of godzilla on trial", seed=40)
```

Model parameters will be downloaded as needed to the directory specified. The models can also be manually downloaded [here ](https://huggingface.co/kuprel/min-dalle/tree/main ).
