A

AI Hallucination

Basic Concepts

The tendency of AI models to generate non-real, fabricated, or incorrect information/content. It manifests differently in text, image, and video generation.

Read More

API

Basic Concepts

An interface through which software components communicate using defined operations and data formats.

Read More

Artificial Intelligence

Basic Concepts

A field concerned with computer systems performing tasks such as perception, prediction or content generation.

F

Fréchet Inception Distance

Basic Concepts

The FID Score is a standard evaluation metric used to measure the quality and realism of generated images.

Read More
G

GPU Computing

Basic Concepts

The use of a graphics processor to perform many computational operations in parallel.

Read More
I

Inference

Basic Concepts

The process where a trained AI model makes predictions or generates output on new inputs. In image generation, it corresponds to converting a prompt into an image.

Read More
M

Machine Learning

Basic Concepts

An approach to developing models that learn patterns from data for prediction or content generation.

Read More

Model Checkpoint

Basic Concepts

A saved model state containing weights and sometimes additional information needed to resume training.

Read More

Model Training

Basic Concepts

The process of adjusting model parameters using data and a learning objective.

Read More
N

Negative Prompt

Basic Concepts

A text command that defines unwanted elements in AI image generation. The model generates images while avoiding the elements specified in the negative prompt.

Read More
P

Prompt

Basic Concepts

A text-based instruction or command given to AI models. It is used to describe the desired output and guides the model's generation process.

Read More

Prompt Engineering

Basic Concepts

A discipline that encompasses techniques and strategies for writing prompts to get the best results from AI models. It includes proper word choice, structuring, and parameter usage.

Read More
T

Token

Basic Concepts

The basic unit used by AI models when processing text. It can be a word, word fragment, or character. Prompt length and model capacity are measured in token count.

Read More
Z

Zero-Shot Learning

Basic Concepts

Zero-shot learning is the ability to perform tasks never seen in training data using only general knowledge.
