Implements a specialized attention mechanism that decomposes video processing into separate spatial (within-frame) and temporal (across-frame) attention operations. This factorization reduces computational complexity from O(T*H*W)² to O(T*(H*W)² + (T)²*H*W) by processing frame-level spatial dependencies independently before computing temporal relationships across the sequence, enabling efficient video-scale diffusion model training.
Unique: Decomposes video attention into independent spatial and temporal branches rather than computing full 3D attention, directly implementing the space-time factorization strategy from Ho et al.'s Video Diffusion Models paper with explicit ResNet blocks in both paths
vs alternatives: More memory-efficient than full 3D attention mechanisms used in some video models, while maintaining temporal coherence better than purely frame-independent spatial processing
Implements a 3D convolutional U-Net backbone with symmetric encoder-decoder paths using ResNet blocks for skip connections. The architecture processes video tensors through progressive downsampling (reducing spatial dimensions) and upsampling (reconstructing resolution) while maintaining temporal information, with sinusoidal time embeddings injected at each block to condition the model on the diffusion noise schedule step.
Unique: Extends 2D U-Net design to 3D by using 3D convolutional layers throughout encoder-decoder paths with ResNet-style skip connections, combined with sinusoidal time embeddings that are broadcast and added to feature maps at each resolution level
vs alternatives: More parameter-efficient than some transformer-based video models while maintaining strong inductive biases for spatiotemporal coherence through convolutional locality
Saves and loads complete model state (U-Net weights, optimizer state, training step counter) to disk as PyTorch .pt files. Enables resuming training from checkpoints and deploying trained models for inference. Checkpoints are saved at configurable intervals (e.g., every N steps) and can be loaded back into memory with automatic device placement (CPU/GPU).
Unique: Implements straightforward PyTorch state dict serialization for saving/loading complete training state, integrated directly into the Trainer class without external dependencies
vs alternatives: Simple and reliable for single-GPU training, though lacks advanced features like distributed checkpointing or experiment tracking found in frameworks like PyTorch Lightning
Allows users to define the noise schedule (how much noise is added at each diffusion step) through configurable parameters like num_timesteps, beta_start, and beta_end. The schedule determines the variance of added noise at each step, controlling the trade-off between training stability and generation quality. Common schedules include linear and cosine variance schedules, which affect how quickly the model transitions from clean data to pure noise.
Unique: Provides configurable noise schedule parameters (num_timesteps, beta_start, beta_end) that are pre-computed during GaussianDiffusion initialization, enabling easy experimentation with different schedules without code changes
vs alternatives: More flexible than fixed schedules, though requires manual tuning; provides standard linear/cosine options vs. more exotic schedules in research papers
Implements the complete diffusion pipeline with a forward process (training) that progressively adds Gaussian noise to videos according to a noise schedule, and a reverse process (generation) that iteratively denoises from pure noise. The forward process learns to predict added noise at each step, while the reverse process uses the trained model to sample coherent videos by starting from random noise and applying learned denoising steps with optional classifier-free guidance scaling.
Unique: Extends image-based DDPM diffusion to video by applying the same noise schedule and denoising objective across the temporal dimension, with space-time factored attention enabling efficient processing of video tensors while maintaining temporal consistency through the diffusion process
vs alternatives: More stable training and better mode coverage than GANs for video generation, though slower at inference; provides principled probabilistic framework vs. autoregressive models which can accumulate errors over long sequences
Encodes text descriptions through a pre-trained BERT model to create semantic embeddings that condition the video diffusion process. Implements classifier-free guidance by training the model to handle both conditioned (with text embeddings) and unconditional (with null embeddings) inputs, allowing control over guidance strength via a cond_scale parameter that interpolates between unconditional and fully-conditioned predictions during sampling.
Unique: Uses BERT embeddings as conditioning input to the U-Net (injected via cross-attention-like mechanisms in ResNet blocks) combined with classifier-free guidance training strategy, allowing dynamic control of text influence without separate guidance models
vs alternatives: Simpler than training separate text encoders or guidance models; leverages pre-trained BERT knowledge without fine-tuning, though less flexible than custom-trained text encoders for domain-specific applications
Provides a PyTorch Dataset class that loads video data from GIF files in a specified directory, converts them to normalized tensors with shape (channels, frames, height, width), and applies optional augmentations including resizing, horizontal flipping, and pixel normalization. Handles variable-length GIFs by extracting all frames and supports batch loading through standard PyTorch DataLoader integration.
Unique: Implements a minimal but functional Dataset class specifically for GIF loading with automatic frame extraction and normalization to [-1, 1] range, integrated directly with PyTorch DataLoader for seamless training pipeline integration
vs alternatives: Simpler than building custom data loaders from scratch, though less feature-rich than production frameworks like NVIDIA DALI or torchvision for handling multiple formats and advanced augmentations
Provides a Trainer class that orchestrates the complete training loop: iterates over batches, computes diffusion loss (L2 distance between predicted and actual noise), performs backpropagation, updates model weights, and saves checkpoints at regular intervals. Handles device placement (CPU/GPU), gradient accumulation, and learning rate scheduling while logging training metrics for monitoring convergence.
Unique: Implements a focused trainer specifically for diffusion models that handles noise prediction loss computation and checkpoint saving, with direct integration to GaussianDiffusion and Unet3D classes rather than generic PyTorch Lightning abstraction
vs alternatives: More lightweight than PyTorch Lightning for simple diffusion training, though less flexible for complex multi-task or distributed scenarios; provides domain-specific loss computation vs generic frameworks

Tokenizes input text across 101 languages using a shared SentencePiece vocabulary of 250K subword tokens, trained on Common Crawl data. The tokenizer handles language-specific scripts (Latin, Cyrillic, Arabic, CJK, etc.) uniformly without language-specific preprocessing, using byte-pair encoding (BPE) to decompose words into subword units. This enables consistent tokenization across languages and scripts without requiring language detection or script-specific handling.
