VAE Playground

This project started out as a simple test to implement Variational Autoencoders using PyTorch Lightning but evolved into a 4 part blog/tutorial on TowardsDataScience. Check them out here:

Part 1: Mathematical Foundations and Implementation
Part 2: Supercharge with PyTorch Lightning
Part 3: Convolutional VAE, Inheritance and Unit Testing
Part 4: Deployment

Model Training

You can train the VAE models by using train.py and editing the config.yaml file.
Hyperparameters to change are:

• model_type
• alpha
• hidden_dim
• dataset
