The UNetSelfAttentionMultiply function in image diffusion networks, such as U-Net, enhances the self-attention mechanism by scaling up the query ($q$) and key ($k$) vector values in the scaled dot-product calculation. This adjustment intensifies the focus on relevant features within the image, allowing the network to better capture intricate details and relationships between different parts of the image. By amplifying the self-attention, the network can more effectively differentiate between important and less important features, leading to a more accurate and detailed image generation process.

In simpler terms, this function acts like a fine-tuning knob for the network’s attention mechanism, similar to adjusting the temperature in a language model. By increasing the self-attention, the network becomes more precise in identifying and emphasizing critical aspects of the image, resulting in higher quality and more refined outputs. This enhancement is particularly useful in tasks that require a high level of detail and accuracy, such as generating realistic images or improving the clarity of complex scenes.
