CLIP-Guided-Diffusion

Just playing with getting CLIP Guided Diffusion running locally, rather than having to use colab.

Original colab notebooks by Katherine Crowson (https://github.com/crowsonkb, https://twitter.com/RiversHaveWings):

It uses OpenAI's 256x256 unconditional ImageNet diffusion model (https://github.com/openai/guided-diffusion)

It uses a 512x512 unconditional ImageNet diffusion model fine-tuned from OpenAI's 512x512 class-conditional ImageNet diffusion model (https://github.com/openai/guided-diffusion)

Together with CLIP (https://github.com/openai/CLIP), they connect text prompts with images.

Either the 256 or 512 model can be used here (by setting --output_size to either 256 or 512)

Some example images:

"A woman standing in a park":

<img src="./Samples/woman_collage.jpg" width="640px">

"An alien landscape":

<img src="./Samples/alien_collage.jpg" width="640px">

"A painting of a man":

<img src="./Samples/man_collage.jpg" width="640px">

*images enhanced with Real-ESRGAN

Environment

Typical VRAM requirments:

Set up

This example uses Anaconda to manage virtual Python environments.

Create a new virtual Python environment for CLIP-Guided-Diffusion:

conda create --name cgd python=3.9
conda activate cgd

Download and change directory:

git clone https://github.com/nerdyrodent/CLIP-Guided-Diffusion.git
cd CLIP-Guided-Diffusion

Run the setup file:

./setup.sh

Or if you want to run the commands manually:

# Install dependencies

pip3 install torch==1.9.0+cu111 torchvision==0.10.0+cu111 torchaudio==0.9.0 -f https://download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
git clone https://github.com/openai/CLIP
git clone https://github.com/crowsonkb/guided-diffusion
pip install -e ./CLIP
pip install -e ./guided-diffusion
pip install lpips matplotlib

# Download the diffusion models

curl -OL 'https://the-eye.eu/public/AI/models/512x512_diffusion_unconditional_ImageNet/512x512_diffusion_uncond_finetune_008100.pt'
curl -OL 'https://openaipublic.blob.core.windows.net/diffusion/jul-2021/256x256_diffusion_uncond.pt'

Run

The simplest way to run is just to pass in your text prompt. For example:

python generate_diffuse.py -p "A painting of an apple"

<img src="./Samples/a_painting_of_an_apple.png" width="256px"></img>

Multiple prompts

Text and image prompts can be split using the pipe symbol in order to allow multiple prompts. You can also use a colon followed by a number to set a weight for that prompt. For example:

python generate_diffuse.py -p "A painting of an apple:1.5|a surreal painting of a weird apple:0.5"

<img src="./Samples/weird_apple.png" width="256px"></img>

Other options

There are a variety of other options to play with. Use help to display them:

python generate_diffuse.py -h

usage: generate_diffuse.py [-h] [-p PROMPTS] [-ip IMAGE_PROMPTS] [-ii INIT_IMAGE]
[-st SKIP_TIMESTEPS] [-is INIT_SCALE] [-m CLIP_MODEL] [-t TIMESTEPS]
[-ds DIFFUSION_STEPS] [-se SAVE_EVERY] [-bs BATCH_SIZE] [-nb N_BATCHES] [-cuts CUTN]
[-cutb CUTN_BATCHES] [-cutp CUT_POW] [-cgs CLIP_GUIDANCE_SCALE]
[-tvs TV_SCALE] [-rgs RANGE_SCALE] [-os IMAGE_SIZE] [-s SEED] [-o OUTPUT] [-nfp] [-pl]

init_image

Timesteps

The number of timesteps (or the number from one of ddim25, ddim50, ddim150, ddim250, ddim500, ddim1000) must divide exactly into diffusion_steps.

image guidance

Examples using a number of options:

python generate_diffuse.py -p "An amazing fractal" -os=256 -cgs=1000 -tvs=50 -rgs=50 -cuts=16 -cutb=4 -t=200 -se=200 -m=ViT-B/32 -o=my_fractal.png

<img src="./Samples/my_fractal.png" width="256px"></img>

python generate_diffuse.py -p "An impressionist painting of a cat:1.75|trending on artstation:0.25" -cgs=500 -tvs=55 -rgs=50 -cuts=16 -cutb=2 -t=100 -ds=2000 -m=ViT-B/32 -pl -o=cat_100.png
<img src="./Samples/cat_100.png" width="256px">

(Funny looking cat, but hey!)

Videos

Using the -vid option saves the diffusion steps and makes a video. The steps can also be upscaled if you have the portable version of https://github.com/xinntao/Real-ESRGAN installed locally, and opt to do so.
