  Overall training is fundamentally similar to LDM. We used the same relative base weights for MAE, MSE, and LPIPS as used in LDM and in sd-vae-ft-mse in the case of LPIPS. The discriminator's weight in the loss objective is dynamically set so that the gradient norm for the discriminator is half that of the reconstruction loss, just like LDM. We used a similar discriminator to what LDM uses, except reparameterized to Wasserstein loss with a gradient penalty and with its group norm layers replaced with layer norms.

You are free and encouraged to distribute this VAE with models as long as you give credit and the VAE carries this license (the rest of the model does not need to share this license, although its distribution must be non-commercial), and I would ask that you include the version number so people can know if they need to get an updated version in the future.
