(IA)^3 for Stable Diffusion

(IA)^3 for Stable Diffusion

Parameter-efficient fine-tuning of Stable Diffusion using (IA)^3.

YouTube Video Explanation

Example

Before Fine-Tuning	After Fine-Tuning

The prompt is "donald trump", and the model is fine-tuned on pokemon-blip-captions for 25 epochs.

Description

Based on these papers:

• (IA)^3: Few-Shot Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning is Better and Cheaper than In-Context Learning
• Stable Diffusion: High-Resolution Image Synthesis with Latent Diffusion Models

Implemented in diffusers using an attention processor in attention.py.

Comparison to full fine-tuning

(IA)^3 has trade-offs similar to LoRA when comparing to full fine-tuning.

One major difference to LoRA is that (IA)^3 uses much less parameters. In general, it will most likely be faster and smaller, but less expressive.

• Faster training
• Smaller file size (~222 KB for Stable Diffusion 1.5 when learn_biases=False, about twice as much otherwise)
• Can be swapped in and out of the base model during inference
• Can be loaded into fine-tuned models that have the same architecture
• Can be merged with the weights of the base model
  • Only possible when learn_biases=False without changing the architecture
  • Not currently implemented in this repo

Installation

First create an environment and install PyTorch.

Then install the pip dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Currently, bitsandbytes only supports Linux, so fine-tuning on Windows requires more VRAM.

Training

Training script in train.py. Based on this example script for diffusers.

Currently you can change the parameters by editing the variables at the top of the file and running the script:

python train.py

Inference

Inference script in infer.py to load the changes and generate images.

Currently you can change the parameters by editing the variables at the top of the file and running the script:

python infer.py
