+# Model Card: DALL·E dVAE
+
+Following [Model Cards for Model Reporting (Mitchell et al.)](https://arxiv.org/abs/1810.03993) and [Lessons from
+Archives (Jo & Gebru)](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1912.10389.pdf), we're providing some information about about the discrete
+VAE (dVAE) that was used to train DALL·E.
+
+## Model Details
+
+The dVAE was developed by researchers at OpenAI to reduce the memory footprint of the transformer trained on the
+text-to-image generation task. The details involved in training the dVAE are described in [the paper][dalle_paper]. This
+model card describes the first version of the model, released in February 2021. The model consists of a convolutional
+encoder and decoder whose architectures are described [here](dall_e/encoder.py) and [here](dall_e/decoder.py), respectively.
+For questions or comments about the models or the code release, please file a Github issue.
+
+## Model Use
+
+### Intended Use
+
+The model is intended for others to use for training their own generative models.
+
+### Out-of-Scope Use Cases
+
+This model is inappropriate for high-fidelity image processing applications. We also do not recommend its use as a
+general-purpose image compressor.
+
+## Training Data
+
+The model was trained on publicly available text-image pairs collected from the internet. This data consists partly of
+[Conceptual Captions][cc] and a filtered subset of [YFCC100M][yfcc100m]. We used a subset of the filters described in
+[Sharma et al.][cc_paper] to construct this dataset; further details are described in [our paper][dalle_paper]. We will
+not be releasing the dataset.
+
+## Performance and Limitations
+
+The heavy compression from the encoding process results in a noticeable loss of detail in the reconstructed images. This
+renders it inappropriate for applications that require fine-grained details of the image to be preserved.

+# Overview
+
+[[Blog]](https://openai.com/blog/dall-e/) [[Paper]](https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.12092) [[Model Card]](model_card.md) [[Usage]](notebooks/usage.ipynb)
+
+This is the official PyTorch package for the discrete VAE used for DALL·E. The transformer used to generate the images from the text is not part of this code release.
+
+# Installation
+
+Before running [the example notebook](notebooks/usage.ipynb), you will need to install the package using
+
+	pip install DALL-E

+mypy
+numpy
+pytest
+requests
+torch
+torchvision
+
+from setuptools import setup
+
+def parse_requirements(filename):
+	lines = (line.strip() for line in open(filename))
+	return [line for line in lines if line and not line.startswith("#")]
