- About the Authors
The most influential libraries in modern AI, Hugging Face Diffusers has become one of the key powering breakthroughs in text-to-image generation, reinforcement learning, and large-scale inference pipelines. This book bridges theory and real-world implementation, enabling readers to translate complex AI concepts into scalable, production-ready solutions.
This book offers a comprehensive, practical, and academic exploration of the diffusers ecosystem, beginning with foundational concepts of the Hugging Face library, progressing to multimodal diffusion, schedulers, RL algorithms (DQN, A3C, AlphaZero), and real-world deployment patterns across cloud platforms. Each chapter offers hands-on examples, design insights, and conceptual explanations that guide you from fundamentals to production-grade workflows.
By the end of this book, readers will have the skills to build, train, evaluate, and deploy state-of-the-art diffusion models and reinforcement learning agents, while applying ethical and responsible AI practices across their work.
