Revolutionizing Image Generation by AI: Turning Text Into Images
LMU Newsroom Article About Our PI Björn Ommer
The Machine Vision Learning Group led by computer scientist Professor Björn Ommer has developed one of the most powerful image synthesis algorithms in existence.
Creating images from text in seconds – and doing so with a conventional graphics card and without supercomputers? As fanciful as it may sound, this is made possible by the new Stable Diffusion AI model. The underlying algorithm was developed by the Machine Vision & Learning Group led by our PI Björn Ommer.
«Even for laypeople not blessed with artistic talent and without special computing know-how and computer hardware, the new model is an effective tool that enables computers to generate images on command. As such, the model removes a barrier to ordinary people expressing their creativity.»
