VQ-VAE2

Implementation of Generating Diverse High-Fidelity Images with VQ-VAE-2 (https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.00446) based on Vector Quantised VAE per Neural Discrete Representation Learning (https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.00937) with PixelCNN prior on the level 1 discrete latent variables per Conditional Image Generation with PixelCNN Decoders (https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.05328) and PixelSNAIL prior on the level 2 discrete latent variables per PixelSNAIL: An Improved Autoregressive Generative Model (https://arxiv.org/abs/1712.09763).

Results

Model reconstructions on CheXpert Chest X-Ray Dataset -- CheXpert is a large public dataset for chest radiograph interpretation, consisting of 224,316 chest radiographs of 65,240 patients at 320x320 pixels for the small version of the dataset. Reconstructions and samples below are for 128x128 images using a codebook of size 8 (3 bits) which for single channel 8-bit gray scale images from CheXpert results to similar compression ratios listed in paper for 8-bit RGB images.

Original	Bottom reconstruction (using top encoding)	Top reconstruction (using zeroed out bottom encoding)

Model samples from priors

Both top and bottom prior models are pretty heavy to train; the samples below were trained only for 84k and 140k steps for top and bottom priors, respectively, using smaller model sizes than what was reported in the paper. The samples are class conditional along the rows for classes (atelectasis, cardiomegaly, consolidation, edema, pleural effusion, no finding) -- much more to be desired / improved with larger models and higher computational budget.

Model parameters:

bottom prior: n_channels 128, n_res_layers 20, n_cond_stack_layers 10, drop_rate 0.1, batch size 16, lr 5e-5
top prior: n_channels 128, n_res_layers 5, n_out_stack_layers 10, drop_rate 0.1, batch size 128, lr 5e-5; (attention params: layers 4, heads 8, dq 16, dk 16, dv 128)

                --n_embeddings [size of the latent space]
                --n_epochs     [number of epochs to train]
