Latent Consistency Model Multistep Scheduler

Overview

Multistep and onestep scheduler (Algorithm 3) introduced alongside latent consistency models in the paper Latent Consistency Models: Synthesizing High-Resolution Images with Few-Step Inference by Simian Luo, Yiqin Tan, Longbo Huang, Jian Li, and Hang Zhao. This scheduler should be able to generate good samples from LatentConsistencyModelPipeline in 1-8 steps.

Parameters

  • num_train_timesteps (int, defaults to 1000) — The number of diffusion steps to train the model.
  • beta_start (float, defaults to 0.0001) — The starting beta value of inference.
  • beta_end (float, defaults to 0.02) — The final beta value.
  • beta_schedule (str, defaults to "linear") — The beta schedule, a mapping from a beta range to a sequence of betas for stepping the model. Choose from linear, scaled_linear, or squaredcos_cap_v2.
  • trained_betas (np.ndarray, optional) — Pass an array of betas directly to the constructor to bypass beta_start and beta_end.
  • original_inference_steps (int, optional, defaults to 50) — The default number of inference steps used to generate a linearly-spaced timestep schedule, from which we will ultimately take num_inference_steps evenly spaced timesteps to form the final timestep schedule.
  • clip_sample (bool, defaults to True) — Clip the predicted sample for numerical stability.
  • clip_sample_range (float, defaults to 1.0) — The maximum magnitude for sample clipping. Valid only when clip_sample=True.
  • set_alpha_to_one (bool, defaults to True) — Each diffusion step uses the alphas product value at that step and at the previous one. For the final step there is no previous alpha. When this option is True the previous alpha product is fixed to 1, otherwise it uses the alpha value at step 0.
  • steps_offset (int, defaults to 0) — An offset added to the inference steps. You can use a combination of offset=1 and set_alpha_to_one=False to make the last step use step 0 for the previous alpha product like in Stable Diffusion.
  • prediction_type (str, defaults to epsilon, optional) — Prediction type of the scheduler function; can be epsilon (predicts the noise of the diffusion process), sample (directly predicts the noisy sample) or v_prediction` (see section 2.4 of Imagen Video paper).
  • thresholding (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to use the “dynamic thresholding” method. This is unsuitable for latent-space diffusion models such as Stable Diffusion.
  • dynamic_thresholding_ratio (float, defaults to 0.995) — The ratio for the dynamic thresholding method. Valid only when thresholding=True.
  • sample_max_value (float, defaults to 1.0) — The threshold value for dynamic thresholding. Valid only when thresholding=True.
  • timestep_spacing (str, defaults to "leading") — The way the timesteps should be scaled. Refer to Table 2 of the Common Diffusion Noise Schedules and Sample Steps are Flawed for more information.
  • timestep_scaling (float, defaults to 10.0) — The factor the timesteps will be multiplied by when calculating the consistency model boundary conditions c_skip and c_out. Increasing this will decrease the approximation error (although the approximation error at the default of 10.0 is already pretty small).
  • rescale_betas_zero_snr (bool, defaults to False) — Whether to rescale the betas to have zero terminal SNR. This enables the model to generate very bright and dark samples instead of limiting it to samples with medium brightness. Loosely related to --offset_noise.

LCMScheduler extends the denoising procedure introduced in denoising diffusion probabilistic models (DDPMs) with non-Markovian guidance.

This model inherits from SchedulerMixin and ConfigMixin. ~ConfigMixin takes care of storing all config attributes that are passed in the scheduler’s __init__ function, such as num_train_timesteps. They can be accessed via scheduler.config.num_train_timesteps. SchedulerMixin provides general loading and saving functionality via the SchedulerMixin.save_pretrained() and from_pretrained() functions.

scale_model_input

< >

( sample: FloatTensor timestep: typing.Optional[int] = None ) torch.FloatTensor

Parameters

  • sample (torch.FloatTensor) — The input sample.
  • timestep (int, optional) — The current timestep in the diffusion chain.

Returns

torch.FloatTensor

A scaled input sample.

Ensures interchangeability with schedulers that need to scale the denoising model input depending on the current timestep.

set_timesteps

< >

( num_inference_steps: typing.Optional[int] = None device: typing.Union[str, torch.device] = None original_inference_steps: typing.Optional[int] = None timesteps: typing.Optional[typing.List[int]] = None strength: int = 1.0 )

Parameters

  • num_inference_steps (int, optional) — The number of diffusion steps used when generating samples with a pre-trained model. If used, timesteps must be None.
  • device (str or torch.device, optional) — The device to which the timesteps should be moved to. If None, the timesteps are not moved.
  • original_inference_steps (int, optional) — The original number of inference steps, which will be used to generate a linearly-spaced timestep schedule (which is different from the standard diffusers implementation). We will then take num_inference_steps timesteps from this schedule, evenly spaced in terms of indices, and use that as our final timestep schedule. If not set, this will default to the original_inference_steps attribute.
  • timesteps (List[int], optional) — Custom timesteps used to support arbitrary spacing between timesteps. If None, then the default timestep spacing strategy of equal spacing between timesteps on the training/distillation timestep schedule is used. If timesteps is passed, num_inference_steps must be None.

Sets the discrete timesteps used for the diffusion chain (to be run before inference).

step

< >

( model_output: FloatTensor timestep: int sample: FloatTensor generator: typing.Optional[torch._C.Generator] = None return_dict: bool = True ) ~schedulers.scheduling_utils.LCMSchedulerOutput or tuple

Parameters

  • model_output (torch.FloatTensor) — The direct output from learned diffusion model.
  • timestep (float) — The current discrete timestep in the diffusion chain.
  • sample (torch.FloatTensor) — A current instance of a sample created by the diffusion process.
  • generator (torch.Generator, optional) — A random number generator.
  • return_dict (bool, optional, defaults to True) — Whether or not to return a LCMSchedulerOutput or tuple.

Returns

~schedulers.scheduling_utils.LCMSchedulerOutput or tuple

If return_dict is True, LCMSchedulerOutput is returned, otherwise a tuple is returned where the first element is the sample tensor.

Predict the sample from the previous timestep by reversing the SDE. This function propagates the diffusion process from the learned model outputs (most often the predicted noise).
