Why DeepCache

• 🚀 Training-free and almost lossless
• 🚀 Support Stable Diffusion, Stable Diffusion XL
• 🚀 Compatible with sampling algorithms like DDIM and PLMS

Updates

• December 6, 2023: Release the code for Stable Diffusion XL. The results of the stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0 are shown in the below figure, with the same prompts from the first figure.

(2.6x acceleration of Stable Diffusion XL)

Introduction

We introduce DeepCache, a novel training-free and almost lossless paradigm that accelerates diffusion models from the perspective of model architecture. Utilizing the property of the U-Net, we reuse the high-level features while updating the low-level features in a very cheap way. DeepCache accelerates Stable Diffusion v1.5 by 2.3x with only a 0.05 decline in CLIP Score, and LDM-4-G(ImageNet) by 4.1x with a 0.22 decrease in FID.

Quick Start

Requirements

pip install transformers diffusers==0.21.4

Stable Diffusion XL

Currently, our code supports the models that can be loaded by StableDiffusionPipeline. You can specify the model name by the argument --model, which by default, is runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5. We are arranging the code for LDM and DDPM and will release it in the next few days.

Usage

• For Stable Diffusion XL (Only the base model currently)

import torch
from DeepCache import StableDiffusionXLPipeline as DeepCacheStableDiffusionXLPipeline
pipe = DeepCacheStableDiffusionXLPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0", torch_dtype=torch.float16, variant="fp16", use_safetensors=True
).to("cuda:0")
prompt = "A photo of a cat. Focus light and create sharp, defined edges."        
deepcache_output = pipe(
    prompt, 
    cache_interval=3, cache_layer_id=0, cache_block_id=0,
    output_type='pt', return_dict=True
).images

• For Stable Diffusion

import torch
from DeepCache import StableDiffusionPipeline
pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained('runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5', torch_dtype=torch.float16).to("cuda:0")
prompt = "a photo of an astronaut on a moon"
deepcache_output = pipe(
    prompt, 
    cache_interval=5, cache_layer_id=0, cache_block_id=0,
    uniform=True, #pow=1.4, center=15, # only for uniform = False
    output_type='pt', return_dict=True
).images

Arguments:

• cache_interval: the interval (N in the 1:N strategy) of cache update. Larger intervals bring more significant speedup.
• cache_layer_id & cache_block_id: the block/layer ID of the selected skip branch.
• uniform: whether to enable the uniform caching strategy.
• pow & center: the hyperparameters for non-uniform 1:N strategy.

Visualization
