diffusers 0.4.1

Diffusers

🤗 Diffusers provides pretrained diffusion models across multiple modalities, such as vision and audio, and serves as a modular toolbox for inference and training of diffusion models.

More precisely, 🤗 Diffusers offers:

• State-of-the-art diffusion pipelines that can be run in inference with just a couple of lines of code (see src/diffusers/pipelines). Check this overview to see all supported pipelines and their corresponding official papers.
• Various noise schedulers that can be used interchangeably for the preferred speed vs. quality trade-off in inference (see src/diffusers/schedulers).
• Multiple types of models, such as UNet, can be used as building blocks in an end-to-end diffusion system (see src/diffusers/models).
• Training examples to show how to train the most popular diffusion model tasks (see examples, e.g. unconditional-image-generation).

Quickstart

In order to get started, we recommend taking a look at two notebooks:

• The Getting started with Diffusers notebook, which showcases an end-to-end example of usage for diffusion models, schedulers and pipelines. Take a look at this notebook to learn how to use the pipeline abstraction, which takes care of everything (model, scheduler, noise handling) for you, and also to understand each independent building block in the library.
• The Training a diffusers model notebook summarizes diffusion models training methods. This notebook takes a step-by-step approach to training your diffusion models on an image dataset, with explanatory graphics.

New Stable Diffusion is now fully compatible with diffusers!

Stable Diffusion is a text-to-image latent diffusion model created by the researchers and engineers from CompVis, Stability AI and LAION. It's trained on 512x512 images from a subset of the LAION-5B database. This model uses a frozen CLIP ViT-L/14 text encoder to condition the model on text prompts. With its 860M UNet and 123M text encoder, the model is relatively lightweight and runs on a GPU with at least 10GB VRAM. See the model card for more information.

You need to accept the model license before downloading or using the Stable Diffusion weights. Please, visit the model card, read the license and tick the checkbox if you agree. You have to be a registered user in 🤗 Hugging Face Hub, and you'll also need to use an access token for the code to work. For more information on access tokens, please refer to this section of the documentation.

Text-to-Image generation with Stable Diffusion

We recommend using the model in half-precision (fp16) as it gives almost always the same results as full precision while being roughly twice as fast and requiring half the amount of GPU RAM.

# make sure you're logged in with `huggingface-cli login`
from diffusers import StableDiffusionPipeline

pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4", torch_type=torch.float16, revision="fp16")
pipe = pipe.to("cuda")

prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
image = pipe(prompt).images[0]  

Note: If you don't want to use the token, you can also simply download the model weights (after having accepted the license) and pass the path to the local folder to the StableDiffusionPipeline.

git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4

Assuming the folder is stored locally under ./stable-diffusion-v1-4, you can also run stable diffusion without requiring an authentication token:

pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("./stable-diffusion-v1-4")
pipe = pipe.to("cuda")

prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
image = pipe(prompt).images[0]  

If you are limited by GPU memory, you might want to consider chunking the attention computation in addition to using fp16. The following snippet should result in less than 4GB VRAM.

pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4", 
    revision="fp16", 
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
pipe = pipe.to("cuda")

prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
pipe.enable_attention_slicing()
image = pipe(prompt).images[0]  

If you wish to use a different scheduler, you can simply instantiate it before the pipeline and pass it to from_pretrained.

from diffusers import LMSDiscreteScheduler

lms = LMSDiscreteScheduler(
    beta_start=0.00085, 
    beta_end=0.012, 
    beta_schedule="scaled_linear"
)

pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4", 
    revision="fp16", 
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    scheduler=lms,
)
pipe = pipe.to("cuda")

prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
image = pipe(prompt).images[0]  
    
image.save("astronaut_rides_horse.png")

If you want to run Stable Diffusion on CPU or you want to have maximum precision on GPU, please run the model in the default full-precision setting:

# make sure you're logged in with `huggingface-cli login`
from diffusers import StableDiffusionPipeline

pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4")

# disable the following line if you run on CPU
pipe = pipe.to("cuda")

prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
image = pipe(prompt).images[0]  
    
image.save("astronaut_rides_horse.png")

Image-to-Image text-guided generation with Stable Diffusion

The StableDiffusionImg2ImgPipeline lets you pass a text prompt and an initial image to condition the generation of new images.

import requests
import torch
from PIL import Image
from io import BytesIO

from diffusers import StableDiffusionImg2ImgPipeline

# load the pipeline
device = "cuda"
model_id_or_path = "CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4"
pipe = StableDiffusionImg2ImgPipeline.from_pretrained(
    model_id_or_path,
    revision="fp16", 
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
# or download via git clone https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4
# and pass `model_id_or_path="./stable-diffusion-v1-4"`.
pipe = pipe.to(device)

# let's download an initial image
url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompVis/stable-diffusion/main/assets/stable-samples/img2img/sketch-mountains-input.jpg"

response = requests.get(url)
init_image = Image.open(BytesIO(response.content)).convert("RGB")
init_image = init_image.resize((768, 512))

prompt = "A fantasy landscape, trending on artstation"

images = pipe(prompt=prompt, init_image=init_image, strength=0.75, guidance_scale=7.5).images

images[0].save("fantasy_landscape.png")

You can also run this example on colab

In-painting using Stable Diffusion

The StableDiffusionInpaintPipeline lets you edit specific parts of an image by providing a mask and text prompt.

from io import BytesIO

import torch
import requests
import PIL

from diffusers import StableDiffusionInpaintPipeline

def download_image(url):
    response = requests.get(url)
    return PIL.Image.open(BytesIO(response.content)).convert("RGB")

img_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompVis/latent-diffusion/main/data/inpainting_examples/overture-creations-5sI6fQgYIuo.png"
mask_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CompVis/latent-diffusion/main/data/inpainting_examples/overture-creations-5sI6fQgYIuo_mask.png"

init_image = download_image(img_url).resize((512, 512))
mask_image = download_image(mask_url).resize((512, 512))

device = "cuda"
model_id_or_path = "CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4"
pipe = StableDiffusionInpaintPipeline.from_pretrained(
    model_id_or_path,
    revision="fp16", 
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
# or download via git clone https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4
# and pass `model_id_or_path="./stable-diffusion-v1-4"`.
pipe = pipe.to(device)

prompt = "a cat sitting on a bench"
images = pipe(prompt=prompt, init_image=init_image, mask_image=mask_image, strength=0.75).images

images[0].save("cat_on_bench.png")

Tweak prompts reusing seeds and latents

You can generate your own latents to reproduce results, or tweak your prompt on a specific result you liked. This notebook shows how to do it step by step. You can also run it in Google Colab .

For more details, check out the Stable Diffusion notebook and have a look into the release notes.

Examples

There are many ways to try running Diffusers! Here we outline code-focused tools (primarily using DiffusionPipelines and Google Colab) and interactive web-tools.

Definitions

Models: Neural network that models $p_\theta(\mathbf{x}_{t-1}|\mathbf{x}_t)$ (see image below) and is trained end-to-end to denoise a noisy input to an image. Examples: UNet, Conditioned UNet, 3D UNet, Transformer UNet

Figure from DDPM paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.11239).

Schedulers: Algorithm class for both inference and training. The class provides functionality to compute previous image according to alpha, beta schedule as well as predict noise for training. Examples: DDPM, DDIM, PNDM, DEIS

Sampling and training algorithms. Figure from DDPM paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.11239).

Diffusion Pipeline: End-to-end pipeline that includes multiple diffusion models, possible text encoders, ... Examples: Glide, Latent-Diffusion, Imagen, DALL-E 2

Figure from ImageGen (https://imagen.research.google/).

Philosophy

• Readability and clarity is preferred over highly optimized code. A strong importance is put on providing readable, intuitive and elementary code design. E.g., the provided schedulers are separated from the provided models and provide well-commented code that can be read alongside the original paper.
• Diffusers is modality independent and focuses on providing pretrained models and tools to build systems that generate continuous outputs, e.g. vision and audio.
• Diffusion models and schedulers are provided as concise, elementary building blocks. In contrast, diffusion pipelines are a collection of end-to-end diffusion systems that can be used out-of-the-box, should stay as close as possible to their original implementation and can include components of another library, such as text-encoders. Examples for diffusion pipelines are Glide and Latent Diffusion.

In the works

For the first release, 🤗 Diffusers focuses on text-to-image diffusion techniques. However, diffusers can be used for much more than that! Over the upcoming releases, we'll be focusing on:

• Diffusers for audio
• Diffusers for reinforcement learning (initial work happening in https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/pull/105).
• Diffusers for video generation
• Diffusers for molecule generation (initial work happening in https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/pull/54)

A few pipeline components are already being worked on, namely:

• BDDMPipeline for spectrogram-to-sound vocoding
• GLIDEPipeline to support OpenAI's GLIDE model
• Grad-TTS for text to audio generation / conditional audio generation

We want diffusers to be a toolbox useful for diffusers models in general; if you find yourself limited in any way by the current API, or would like to see additional models, schedulers, or techniques, please open a GitHub issue mentioning what you would like to see.
