@prof_kamilov Let me reassure you that you do have a fan base! My officemate and I are big fans of your work, and we regularly stalk your LinkedIn.. waiting for your next preprint!😁
@GordonWetzstein 4/4
Could you clarify where u lives in PIXEL-DC?
Is u intended to be latent-space, with the shift applied before decoding, e.g. D(z̃−u)?
Or is u pixel-space in the PIXEL-DC branch, with an implicit mapping back to latent space?

But later, u appears in the latent reverse update:
z_{t−1} ← ... + sqrt(ᾱ_{t−1})u
and in the dual update:
u ← u + x − z̃,
where x = E(x̂), so x, z̃, and z_{t−1} are latent-space variables.
@TheAhmadOsman no one will understand this pov.. till trying a cluster..
u can launch multiple jobs in parallel and do a lot of experiment at the same time!
the only drawback is the $$ to build it!
