Over the past few years, I’ve been re-implementing computer vision papers in PyTorch to understand their core mechanisms.
Each implementation is intentionally kept small and self-contained. The goal is not to provide production-ready training code, but to expose the essential ideas of each method once most abstractions and engineering details are removed.
The repository currently includes more than 50 implementations spanning:
– Generative models (GANs, VAEs, diffusion)
– 3D reconstruction and neural rendering
– Meta-learning and representation learning
Design choices:
– Minimal, single-file implementations
– Code that stays close to the structure of the original papers
– Emphasis on conceptual correctness over training scale or benchmarks
– Reproduction of key figures or results when feasible
I’d be interested in feedback from people who have implemented or reviewed these methods, particularly where this minimal approach oversimplifies important details.
