Updates

2023

v15.0.1 (25/04):

What Changes?

• Bump Tensorboard and Tensorflow version to 2.12.0 https://github.com/Linaqruf/kohya-trainer/issues/200
• Fix class_token undefined if activation_word = 1 word https://github.com/Linaqruf/kohya-trainer/issues/198
  • But also delete token_to_captions function, because it's complicated and also it has the same function with 4.2.3. Custom Caption/Tag

v15.0.0 (10/04):

What Changes?

• Refactoring 4 notebooks
• Use python dict for passing argparse value
• Set AnyLoRA as default pretrained model
• Change AnyLoRA version to bakedVAE
• Added a logic to download multiple custom model or LoRA by separating the link with comma (,)
• Revamped 3.3. Image Scraper (Optional):
  • Simplified the cell, hide every parameter that should be default, e.g. user_agent
  • Delete tags1 and tags2 field, and changed it to prompt. Now user can type their desired tags more than 2 (except: danbooru) by separating each tag with a comma (,)
  • Added sub_folder to scrape images to desired path, useful for multi-concept or multi-directories training.
    • If the value is empty, default path is train_data_dir
    • if the value is string and not path, default path is train_data_dir + sub_folder
    • if the value is path, default path is sub_folder
  • Added range to limit the number of images to scrape. How to use it: Add 1-200 to download 200 images. Newest Images in the server are prioritized.
• Added recursive option to 4.1. Data Cleaning, to clean unsupported files and convert RGBA to RGB recursively. Useful for multi-concept or multi-directories training.
• Refactoring 4.2.1. BLIP Captioning:
  • Added recursive option to 4.2.1. BLIP Captioning, to generate captions recursively, by checking sub-directories as well. Useful for multi-concept or multi-directories training.
  • Set --debug or verbose_logging in 4.2.1. BLIP Captioning On by default.
• Revamped Waifu Diffusion 1.4 Tagger V2:
  • Added WD Tagger new model, and set to default : SmilingWolf/wd-v1-4-convnextv2-tagger-v2
  • Added --remove_underscore args to the WD Tagger script.
  • Changed how the code works, by not only adding general tags (category = 0) but also character tags (category = 4)
  • Character tags can be regulated by specifying --character_threshold parameter (default = 0.35)
  • Changed --thresh to --general_threshold (default = 0.35)
  • Added --undesired_words args to not add specified words when interrogating images, separate each word by comma, e.g. 1girl, scenery
  • Changed how --debug works, new template :

      {filename} 
      Character Tags = {character_tags}
      General Tags = {general_tags}
  

  • Set --debug or verbose_logging On by default.
  • Added --frequency_tags to print tags frequency
  • Added recursive option to generate tags recursively, by checking sub-directories as well. Useful for multi-concept or multi-directories training.
• Revamped 4.2.3. Custom Caption/Tag:
  • Change the code logic by using method from Python List.
  • Using append() to add tags to the end of lines.
  • Using insert() to add tags to the beginning of lines.
  • Using remove() to remove tags separated by comma.
  • Cheatsheet from v14.6 is outdated, now user can easily add or remove tags
    • Tags will be converted to list, so "_" or " " doesn't matter anymore
    • However, any tags containing "_" will still be replaced with " "
    • To add a tag, set 1girl to custom_tags then run, if you set append, it will be added to the end of lines instead.
    • To add multiple tags, separate each tag by comma (,), e.g. 1girl, garden, school uniform
    • Note that because of using insert(), the result will be backward instead: school uniform, garden, 1girl
    • To remove tags, set custom_tags to your desired words and set remove_tags
  • Added sub_folder option, useful for multi-concept or multi-directories training.
    • If the value is --all it will process directory and subdirectories in train_data_dir recursively.
    • If the value is empty, default path is train_data_dir
    • If the value is string and not path, default path is train_data_dir + sub_folder
    • If the value is path, default path is sub_folder
• Finetune notebook:
  • Added recursive option to 4.3. Merge Annotation Into JSON and Create Buckets & Convert to Latents
• Revamped 5.2. Dataset Config:
  • Dreambooth notebook:
    • Deleted instance_token and class_token and changed into activation word
    • Support multi-concept training
      • Recursive, it automatically finds subdirectories, if supported_extensions exist (".png", ".jpg", ".jpeg", ".webp", ".bmp") it will add the path to [[dataset.subsets]] in dataset_config.toml
      • You can set parent folder as train_data_dir like old version, and you can also normally set train_data_dir.
      • To make sure multi-concept training is implemented, I put back folder naming scheme, but now it's optional.

      <num_repeats>_<class_token>
      

      • Example: 10_mikapikazo, 10 will be added as num_repeats and mikapikazo will be added to class_token in dataset_config.toml
      • Because it's optional, if folder naming scheme is not detected, it will get num_repeats from dataset_repeats and class_token from activation_word
    • Added token_to_captions
      • User can add activation_word to captions/tags
      • if folder naming scheme is detected, it will add <class_token> from folder name instead of activation word
      • keep_tokens set to 1 if token_to_captions is enabled
  • Fine-tune notebook:
    • Deleted support for --dataset_config, reverted back to old fine-tuning dataset config.
    • Support multi-directory training
      • Set recursive to
        • 4.3. Merge Annotation Into JSON
        • 4.4. Create Buckets & Convert to Latents
• Added min_snr_gamma, disabled by default, Gamma for reducing the weight of high-loss timesteps. Lower numbers have a stronger effect. The paper recommends 5. Read the paper here.
• Added vae_batch_size to dreambooth notebook
• Revamped 6.4. Launch Portable Web UI to match the latest Cagliostro Colab UI
  • Set anapnoe-webui as repo by default.

Overview

• Fine tuning of Stable Diffusion's U-Net using Diffusers
• Addressing improvements from the NovelAI article, such as using the output of the penultimate layer of CLIP (Text Encoder) instead of the last layer and learning at non-square resolutions with aspect ratio bucketing.
• Extends token length from 75 to 225 and offers automatic caption and automatic tagging with BLIP, DeepDanbooru, and WD14Tagger
• Supports hypernetwork learning and is compatible with Stable Diffusion v2.0 (base and 768/v)
• By default, does not train Text Encoder for fine tuning of the entire model, but option to train Text Encoder is available.
• Ability to make learning even more flexible than with DreamBooth by preparing a certain number of images (several hundred or more seems to be desirable).

What Changes?

• Reformat 1.1. Install Dependencies cell for all notebooks, added main()
• Downgrade xformers to 0.0.16 and triton to 2.0.0, because 0.0.17 is now automatically installing torch 2.0.0 which is incompatible for Colab Notebook, for now. At least no more installing pre-release package.
• Fix libunwind8-dev not found by installing latest version using !apt install libunwind8-dev -qq
• Added condition if T4 in !nvidia-smi output, then do a lowram patch by sed -i "s@cpu@cuda@" library/model_util.py
• Added function to remove_bitsandbytes_message by manually editing main.py, and then set os.environ["BITSANDBYTES_NOWELCOME"] = "1"
  • BITSANDBYTES_NOWELCOME is unavailable in bitsandbytes==0.35.0 and we don't have a plan to update bitsandbytes version
• Deactivate tensorflow print standard error, by os.environ["TF_CPP_MIN_LOG_LEVEL"] = "3", credit: TheLastBen/fast-stable-diffusion
• Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH WITH os.environ["LD_LIBRARY_PATH"] = "/usr/local/cuda/lib64/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

v14.6 (21/03):

What Changes?

• Reformat 4 main notebook with black python formatter.
• Changed xformers wheels version to 0.0.17.dev476 and triton to 2.0.0.post1, to prevent triton installing torch 2.0.0.
• Downgrading google perftools and tcmalloc for ram patch, credit to camenduru/stable-diffusion-webui-colab.
• Removed delete metadata option in 4.1. Data Cleaning cell, no more accidentally deleted metadata.
• Added remove_underscore option in 4.2.2. Waifu Diffusion 1.4 Tagger V2 cell
• Revamped 4.2.3. Custom Caption/Tag (Optional) cell, now you can add/remove desired tags.
  • Tag example: 1girl, brown hair, school uniform, smile
  • if your tag has spaces, replace that spaces ( ) with underscore (_):
    • custom_tag : blue_berry
    • output : blue berry, 1girl, brown hair, school uniform, smile
  • if you set append to True, your custom tag will be added to end of line instead
    • custom_tag : blue_berry
    • output : 1girl, brown hair, school uniform, smile, blue berry
  • if you want to add or remove multiple tags, add space ( ):
    • custom_tag : blue_berry red_juice,
    • output: blue berry, red juice, 1girl, brown hair, school uniform, smile
  • if you want to remove a tag, set remove_tag to True
    • custom_tag : brown hair
    • output : 1girl, school uniform, smile, blue berry
• Fixes bug when generating .txt or .caption files in 4.2.3. Custom Caption/Tag (Optional), it's added additional (.), e.g. image..txt
• Deleted 5.3. Sample prompt config, sample prompt automatically created. If you want to add another prompt. Edit sample_prompt.txt directly in colab notebook editor
• Even though token is not caption, now you can add token to caption files in 5.2. Dataset Config, this will function in the same way as the 4.2.3. Custom Caption/Tag (Optional) cell. By doing this, it automatically set keep_tokens to > 1
  • You can enable or disable the sample prompt in 5.4. Training config
  • Automatically generating sample every 1 epoch for LoRA notebook and every 100 steps for Dreambooth and Finetuning notebook
  • The prompt weighting such as ( ) and [ ] are working.
  • Support long prompt weighting pipeline
• Revamped 5.3. LoRA and Optimizer Config

  • No more manually setting the network_module

  • No more manually setting the network_args

  • Added `Recommended Values:

    network_category	network_dim	network_alpha	conv_dim	conv_alpha
    LoRA	32	1	-	-
    LoCon	16	8	8	1
    LoHa	8	4	4	1

  • User can choose which network_category to train, option: ["LoRA", "LoCon", "LoCon_Lycoris", "LoHa"]

    • LoRA is normal LoRA, only trained cross-attention/transformer layer
    • LoCon is LoRA for Convolutional Network but using networks.lora as default network_module, doesn't support dropout
    • LoCon_Lycoris is LoRA for Convolutional Network but using lycoris.kohya as default network_module
      • Why? current state of LoCon trained with lycoris==0.1.3 can't be loaded in Additional Network extension in Web UI, because:
        1. AddNet extension doesn't support cp_decomposition
        2. LyCORIS developer is temporarily removing hook support for AddNet extension to prevent code conflict
    • LoHa is LoRA with Hadamard Product representation, slower to train than other network_category, need more documentation

  • Deleted network_module support for locon.locon_kohya as it's now deprecated

  • conv_dim and conv_alpha now has separated markdown field

• Changed Visualize loss graph (Optional) position to 6.1, because it seems has dependency conflict with 6.4. Launch Portable Web UI
• 6.3. Inference set default network_module to networks.lora. Doesn't support LoCon and LoHa trained with LyCORIS.
• Revamped 6.4. Launch Portable Web UI to match the latest Cagliostro Colab UI

v14.1 (09/03):

What Changes?

• Fix xformers version for all notebook to adapt Python 3.9.16
• Added new network_module : lycoris.kohya. Read KohakuBlueleaf/LyCORIS
  • Previously LoCon, now it's called LyCORIS, a Home for custom network module for kohya-ss/sd-scripts.
  • Algo List as of now:
    • lora: Conventional Methods a.k.a LoCon
    • loha: Hadamard product representation introduced by FedPara
  • For backward compatibility, locon.locon_kohya still exist, but you can train LoCon in the new lycoris.kohya module as well by specify ["algo=lora"] in the network_args
• Added new condition to enable or disable generating sample every n epochs/steps, by disabling it, sample_every_n_type_value automatically set to int(999999)

v14 (07/03):

What Changes?

• Refactoring (again)
  • Moved support us button to separated and hidden section
  • Added old commit link to all notebook
  • Deleted clone sd-scripts option because too risky, small changes my break notebook if new updates contain syntax from python > 3.9
  • Added wd-1.5-beta-2 and wd-1.5-beta-2-aesthetic as pretrained model for SDv2.1 768v model, please use --v2 and --v_parameterization if you wanna train with it.
  • Removed folder naming scheme cell for colab dreambooth method, thanks to everyone who made this changes possible. Now you can set train_data_dir from gdrive path without worrying <repeats>_<token> class> ever again
• Revamped V. Training Model section
  • Now it has 6 major cell
    1. Model Config:
       • Specify pretrained model path, vae to use, your project name, outputh path and if you wanna train on v2 and or v_parameterization here.
    2. Dataset Config:
       • This cell will create dataset_config.toml file based on your input. And that .toml file will be used for training.
       • You can set class_token and num_repeats here instead of renaming your folder like before.
       • Limitation: even though --dataset_config is powerful, but I'm making the workflow to only fit one train_data_dir and reg_data_dir, so probably it's not compatible to train on multiple concepts anymore. But you can always tweaks .toml file.
       • For advanced users, please don't use markdown but instead tweak the python dictionaries yourself, click show code and you can add or remove variable, dataset, or dataset.subset from dict, especially if you want to train on multiple concepts.
    3. Sample Prompt Config
       • This cell will create sample_prompt.txt file based on your input. And that .txt file will be used for generating sample.
       • Specify sample_every_n_type if you want to generate sample every n epochs or every n steps.
       • The prompt weighting such as ( ) and [ ] are not working.
       • Limitation: Only support 1 line of prompt at a time
       • For advanced users, you can tweak sample_prompt.txt and add another prompt based on arguments below.
       • Supported prompt arguments:
         • --n : Negative Prompt
         • --w : Width
         • --h : Height
         • --d : Seed, set to -1 for using random seed
         • --l : CFG Scale
         • --s : Sampler steps
    4. Optimizer Config (LoRA and Optimizer Config)
       • Additional Networks Config:
         • Added support for LoRA in Convolutional Network a.k.a KohakuBlueleaf/LoCon training, please specify locon.locon_kohya in network_module
         • Revamped network_args, now you can specify more than 2 custom args, but you need to specify it inside a list, e.g. ["conv_dim=64","conv_alpha=32"]
         • network_args for LoCon training as follow: "conv_dim=RANK_FOR_CONV" "conv_alpha=ALPHA_FOR_CONV" "dropout=DROPOUT_RATE"
         • Remember conv_dim + network_dim, so if you specify both at 128, you probably will get 300mb filesize LoRA
         • Now you can specify if you want to train on both UNet and Text Encoder or just wanna train one of them.
       • Optimizer Config
         • Similar to network_args, now you can specify more than 2 custom args, but you need to specify it inside a list, e.g. for DAdaptation : ["decouple=true","weight_decay=0.6"]
         • Deleted lr_scheduler_args and added lr_scheduler_num_cycles and lr_scheduler_power back
         • Added Adafactor for lr_scheduler
    5. Training Config
       • This cell will create config_file.toml file based on your input. And that .toml file will be used for training.
       • Added num_epochs back to LoRA notebook and max_train_steps to dreambooth and native training
       • For advanced users, you can tweak training config without re-run specific training cell by editing config_file.toml
    6. Start Training
       • Set config path to start training.
         • sample_prompt.txt
         • config_file.toml
         • dataset_config.toml
       • You can also import training config from other source, but make sure you change all important variable such as what model and what vae did you use
• Revamped VI. Testing section
  • Deleted all wrong indentation
  • Added Portable Web UI as an alternative to try your trained model and LoRA, make sure you still got more time.
• Added new changes to upload config_file to huggingface.

  • Changed Stable Diffusion 1.5 pretrained model to pruned one.
• Changed Natural Language Captioning back from GIT to BLIP with beam_search enabled by default
• Revamped Image Scraper from simple to advanced, added new feature such as:
  • Added safebooru to booru list
  • Added custom_url option, so you can copy and paste the url instead of specify which booru sites and tags to scrape
  • Added user_agent field, because you can't access some image board with default user_agent
  • Added limit_rate field to limit your count
  • [Experimental] Added with_aria2c to scrape your dataset, not a wrapper, just a simple trick to extract urls with gallery-dl and download them with aria2c instead. Fast but seems igonoring --write-tags.
  • All downloaded tags now saved with .txt format instead of .jpg.txt
  • Added additional_arguments to make it more flexible if you want to try other args
• Revamped Append Custom Tag cell
  • Create new caption file for every image file based on extension provided (.txt/.caption) if you didn't want to use BLIP or WD Tagger
  • Added --keep_tokens args to the cell

    • LoRA and Optimizer Config
      • Only Optimizer Config for notebook outside LoRA training
      • All about Optimizer, learning_rate and lr_scheduler goes here
      • Added new Optimizer from latest kohya-ss/sd-script, all available optimizer : `"AdamW", "AdamW8bit", "Lion", "SGDNesterov", "SGDNesterov8bit", "DAdaptation", "AdaFactor"
      • Currently you can't use DAdaptation if you're in Colab free tier because it need more VRAM
      • Added --optimizer_args for custom args, useful if you want to try adjusting weight decay, betas etc
    • Dataset Config
      • Only available for Dreambooth method notebook, it basically bucketing cell for Dreambooth.
      • Added caption dropout, you can drop your caption or tags by adjusting dropout rates.
      • Added --bucket_reso_steps and --bucket_no_upscale
    • Training Config
      • Added --noise_offset, read Diffusion With Offset Noise
      • Added --lowram to load the model in VRAM instead of CPU
• Revamped Convert Diffusers to Checkpoint cell, now it's more readable.
• Fixing bugs when output_dir located in google drive, it assert an error because of something like /content/drive/dreambooth_cmd.yaml which is forbidden, now instead of saved to {output_dir}, now training args history are saved to {training_dir}

News

• I'm in burnout phase, so I'm sorry for the lame update.
• Fast Kohya Trainer, an idea to merge all Kohya's training script into one cell. Please check it here.
  • Please don't expect high, it just a secondary project and maintaining 1-click cell is hard. So I won't prioritized it.
• Kohya Textual Inversion are cancelled for now, because maintaining 4 Colab Notebook already making me this tired.
  • Please use this instead, not kohya script but everyone on WD server using this since last year:
    • stable-textual-inversion-cafe colab
    • stable-textual-inversion-cafe Colab - Lazy Edition
• I wrote a Colab Notebook for #AUTOMATIC1111's #stablediffusion Web UI, with built-in Mikubill's #ControlNet extension. All Annotator and extracted ControlNet model are provided in the notebook. It's called Cagliostro Colab UI. Please try it.

• Added support for training with fp16 gradients (experimental feature). This allows training with 8GB VRAM on SD1.x. See "Training with fp16 gradients (experimental feature)" for details.
• Updated WD14Tagger script to automatically download weights.

v7 (7/12):

• Requires Diffusers 0.10.2 (0.10.0 or later will work, but there are reported issues with 0.10.0 so we recommend using 0.10.2). To update, run pip install -U diffusers[torch]==0.10.2 in your virtual environment.
• Added support for Diffusers 0.10 (uses code in Diffusers for v-parameterization training and also supports safetensors).
• Added support for accelerate 0.15.0.
• Added support for multiple teacher data folders. For caption and tag preprocessing, use the --full_path option. The arguments for the cleaning script have also changed, see "Caption and Tag Preprocessing" for details.

v6 (6/12):

• Temporary fix for an error when saving in the .safetensors format with some models. If you experienced this error with v5, please try v6.

v5 (5/12):

• Added support for the .safetensors format. Install safetensors with pip install safetensors and specify the use_safetensors option when saving.
• Added the log_prefix option.
• The cleaning script can now be used even when one of the captions or tags is missing.

v4 (14/12):

• The script name has changed to fine_tune.py.
• Added the option --train_text_encoder to train the Text Encoder.
• Added the option --save_precision to specify the data format of the saved checkpoint. Can be selected from float, fp16, or bf16.
• Added the option --save_state to save the training state, including the optimizer. Can be resumed with the --resume option.

v3 (29/11):

• Requires Diffusers 0.9.0. To update it, run pip install -U diffusers[torch]==0.9.0.
• Supports Stable Diffusion v2.0. Use the --v2 option when training (and when pre-acquiring latents). If you are using 768-v-ema.ckpt or stable-diffusion-2 instead of stable-diffusion-v2-base, also use the --v_parameterization option when training.
• Added options to specify the minimum and maximum resolutions of the bucket when pre-acquiring latents.
• Modified the loss calculation formula.
• Added options for the learning rate scheduler.
• Added support for downloading Diffusers models directly from Hugging Face and for saving during training.
• The cleaning script can now be used even when only one of the captions or tags is missing.
• Added options for the learning rate scheduler.

v2 (23/11):

• Implemented Waifu Diffusion 1.4 Tagger for alternative DeepDanbooru for auto-tagging
• Added a tagging script using WD14Tagger.
• Fixed a bug that caused data to be shuffled twice.
• Corrected spelling mistakes in the options for each script.

Conclusion

While Stable Diffusion fine tuning is typically based on CompVis, using Diffusers as a base allows for efficient and fast fine tuning with less memory usage. We have also added support for the features proposed by Novel AI, so we hope this article will be useful for those who want to fine tune their models.
