Conditional diffusion models have exhibited superior performance in high-fidelity text-guided visual generation and editing. Nevertheless, prevailing text-guided visual diffusion models primarily focus on incorporating text-visual relationships exclusively into the reverse process, often disregarding their relevance in the forward process. This inconsistency between forward and reverse processes may limit the precise conveyance of textual semantics in visual synthesis results. To address this issue, we propose a novel and general contextualized diffusion model (ContextDiff) by incorporating the cross-modal context encompassing interactions and alignments between text condition and visual sample into forward and reverse processes. We propagate this context to all timesteps in the two processes to adapt their trajectories, thereby facilitating cross-modal conditional modeling. We generalize our contextualized diffusion to both DDPMs and DDIMs with theoretical derivations, and demonstrate the effectiveness of our model in evaluations with two challenging tasks: text-to-image generation, and text-to-video editing. In each task, our ContextDiff achieves new state-of-the-art performance, significantly enhancing the semantic alignment between text condition and generated samples, as evidenced by quantitative and qualitative evaluations.

Introduction

Overview of our ContextDiff

We propose a novel and general cross-modal contextualized diffusion model (ContextDiff) that harnesses cross-modal context to facilitate the learning capacity of cross-modal diffusion models, including text-to-image generation, and text-guided video editing.

Preparations

Environment Setup

git clone https://github.com/YangLing0818/ContextDiff.git
conda create -n ContextDiff python==3.8
conda activate ContextDiff
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install git+https://github.com/openai/CLIP.git

Install Xformers to Save Memory

We recommend to use xformers to save memory:

wget https://github.com/ShivamShrirao/xformers-wheels/releases/download/4c06c79/xformers-0.0.15.dev0+4c06c79.d20221201-cp38-cp38-linux_x86_64.whl
pip install xformers-0.0.15.dev0+4c06c79.d20221201-cp38-cp38-linux_x86_64.whl

Download Model Weights

Here we choose Stable Diffusion as our diffusion backbone, you can download the model weights using our download.py in folder 'ckpt/'.

cd ckpt
python download.py 
wget "https://openaipublic.azureedge.net/clip/models/8fa8567bab74a42d41c5915025a8e4538c3bdbe8804a470a72f30b0d94fab599/RN101.pt"
wget "https://openaipublic.azureedge.net/clip/models/40d365715913c9da98579312b702a82c18be219cc2a73407c4526f58eba950af/ViT-B-32.pt"
wget "https://openaipublic.azureedge.net/clip/models/5806e77cd80f8b59890b7e101eabd078d9fb84e6937f9e85e4ecb61988df416f/ViT-B-16.pt"
cd ..

Finetune with ContextDiff

You can reproduce our video editing results by running:

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python ContextDiff_finetune.py --config config/rose.yaml

You can also try your own video samples by using personalized config file, you should use put the video frames into './data' folders, and config file into './config'. Please note that using the adapter/shifter pretrained from text-to-image generation part would further eanhance semantic alignment of the edited videos.

The edited videos and finetuned checkpoint are placed in './result'
