# Model Card for FollowYourPose V1

<!-- Provide a quick summary of what the model is/does. -->

## Model Details

### Model Description

<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this model is. -->
The authors note in the [assoicated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.01186):
>**Pose-Guided Text-to-Video Generation**.
> We propose an efficient training scheme to empower the ability of the pretrained text-to-image model (i.e., Stable Diffusion) to generate pose-controllable character videos with minimal data requirements.
> We can generate various high-definition pose-controllable character videos that are well-aligned with the pose sequences and the semantics of text prompts.

## Uses

<!-- Address questions around how the model is intended to be used, including the foreseeable users of the model and those affected by the model. -->

### Direct Use

<!-- This section is for the model use without fine-tuning or plugging into a larger ecosystem/app. -->

Text to Video 

### Downstream Use 

- Character replacement
- Background change
- Style transfer
- Multiple characters


### Out-of-Scope Use

<!-- This section addresses misuse, malicious use, and uses that the model will not work well for. -->

*Note: This section as adpated from the [Stable Diffusion v1 model card](https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4).*
The model was not trained to be factual or true representations of people or events, and therefore using the model to generate such content is out-of-scope for the abilities of this model.

## Bias, Risks, and Limitations

<!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->

*Note: This section is adpted from the [DALLE-MINI model card](https://huggingface.co/dalle-mini/dalle-mini).*

The model should not be used to intentionally create or disseminate videos that create hostile or alienating environments for people. This includes generating videos that people would foreseeably find disturbing, distressing, or offensive; or content that propagates historical or current stereotypes.



### Recommendations

<!-- This section is meant to convey recommendations with respect to the bias, risk, and technical limitations. -->

Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model. More information needed for further recommendations.

## How to Get Started with the Model

Use the code below to get started with the model.

```python
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline

pipeline = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("YueMafighting/FollowYourPose_v1")
```

## Training Details

### Training Data

<!-- This should link to a Data Card, perhaps with a short stub of information on what the training data is all about as well as documentation related to data pre-processing or additional filtering. -->
**Stage 1 Training Data:** Pose-Controllable Text-to-Image Gen- eration.
The authors note in the [assoicated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.01186) that they colected 
> the human skeleton images in the **LAION** by Mpose, only retaining images that could be detected more than 50% of the key point
> which formed a dataset named LAION-Pose from.

The autheors note in the [associated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.01186) about LAION-Pose:
> This dataset contains diverse human-like characters with various back- ground contexts.

**Stage 2 Training Data: Video Generation via Pose-free Videos.**
> However, the stage 1 model can generate similar pose videos yet the background is inconsistent.
> Thus, we further finetune the model from our first stage on the pose- free video dataset **HDVLIA**
> This dataset contains con- tinuous in-the-wild video text pairs.

### Training Procedure 

<!-- This relates heavily to the Technical Specifications. Content here should link to that section when it is relevant to the training procedure. -->

#### Preprocessing

The authors note in the [assoicated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.01186):
>We learn a zero-initialized convolutional encoder to encode the pose information
>We finetune the motion of the above network via a pose-free video dataset by adding the learnable temporal self-attention and reformed cross-frame self-attention blocks.

[More Information Needed]

#### Metrics

<!-- These are the evaluation metrics being used, ideally with a description of why. -->
The authors note in the [assoicated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.01186):
> - **CLIP score (CS):** CLIP score or video-text alignment. We compute CLIP score for each frame and then average them across all frames.
>   The final CLIP score is calculated on 1024 video samples.
> - **Quality (QU):** We conduct the human evaluation of videos’ quality across a test set containing 32 videos.
>   In detail, we display three videos in random order and request the evaluators to iden- tify the one with superior quality
> - **Pose Accuracy (FQ):** We regard the input pose sentence as ground truth video and evaluate the average precision of the skeleton on 1024 video samples.
>   For a fair comparison, we adopt the same pose detector for both the processing of LAION-Pose collecting and evaluation.
> - **Frame Consistency (FC):** Following we report frame consistency measured via CLIP cosine similarity of consecutive frames

### Model Architecture and Objective
The authors note in the [assoicated paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.01186):
> To make the pre-trained T2I model suitable for video inputs, we make several key modifications.
> Firstly, we add extra temporal self-attention layers, to the stable diffusion network.
> Secondly, inspired by the recent one-shot video generation model, we reshape the attention to cross-frame attention for better content consistency.
