DAE vs VAE examples of understanding h_0 and z_0

[albertotono]

Could you kindly explain what DAE and VAE refer in your code specifically? Is the VAE the first diffusion and the DAE the 2nd one?

or in this case the VAE is the PVCNN?

[ZENGXH]

DAE refers to diffusion models in the latent space of vae (the shape latent diffusion model and latent point diffusion model in the right) VAE refers to the encoder-decoder of the VAE, it has three red components: the shape latent encoder (pvcnn), the latent point encoder (pvcnn) and decoder (pvcnn) in the figure
