# Convolutional Variational Autoencoder (CVAE) on MNIST
|
||
|
||
Convolutional variational autoencoder (CVAE) implementation in MLX using
|
||
MNIST.[^1]
|
||
|
||
## Setup
|
||
|
||
Install the requirements:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
pip install -r requirements.txt
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Run
|
||
|
||
|
||
To train a VAE run:
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
python main.py
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
To see the supported options, do `python main.py -h`.
|
||
|
||
Training with the default options should give:
|
||
|
||
```shell
|
||
$ python train.py
|
||
Options:
|
||
Device: GPU
|
||
Seed: 0
|
||
Batch size: 128
|
||
Max number of filters: 64
|
||
Number of epochs: 50
|
||
Learning rate: 0.001
|
||
Number of latent dimensions: 8
|
||
Number of trainable params: 0.1493 M
|
||
Epoch 1 | Loss 14626.96 | Throughput 1803.44 im/s | Time 34.3 (s)
|
||
Epoch 2 | Loss 10462.21 | Throughput 1802.20 im/s | Time 34.3 (s)
|
||
...
|
||
Epoch 50 | Loss 8293.13 | Throughput 1804.91 im/s | Time 34.2 (s)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The throughput was measured on a 32GB M1 Max.
|
||
|
||
Reconstructed and generated images will be saved after each epoch in the
|
||
`models/` path. Below are examples of reconstructed training set images and
|
||
generated images.
|
||
|
||
#### Reconstruction
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
#### Generation
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
|
||
## Limitations
|
||
|
||
At the time of writing, MLX does not have transposed 2D convolutions. The
|
||
example approximates them with a combination of nearest neighbor upsampling and
|
||
regular convolutions, similar to the original U-Net. We intend to update this
|
||
example once transposed 2D convolutions are available.
