# Latent Consistency Model (LCM) LoRA: SDv1-5

Latent Consistency Model (LCM) LoRA was proposed in [LCM-LoRA: A universal Stable-Diffusion Acceleration Module](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.05556) 
by *Simian Luo, Yiqin Tan, Suraj Patil, Daniel Gu et al.*

It is a distilled consistency adapter for [`runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5`](https://huggingface.co/runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5) that allows
to reduce the number of inference steps to only between **2 - 8 steps**.

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------|
| [**lcm-lora-sdv1-5**](https://huggingface.co/latent-consistency/lcm-lora-sdv1-5)   | **67.5**        |
| [lcm-lora-ssd-1b](https://huggingface.co/latent-consistency/lcm-lora-ssd-1b)   | 105        |
| [lcm-lora-sdxl](https://huggingface.co/latent-consistency/lcm-lora-sdxl) | 197M  |

## Usage

LCM-LoRA is supported in 🤗 Hugging Face Diffusers library from version v0.23.0 onwards. To run the model, first 
install the latest version of the Diffusers library as well as `peft`, `accelerate` and `transformers`.
audio dataset from the Hugging Face Hub:

```bash
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install --upgrade diffusers transformers accelerate peft
```

***Note: For detailed usage examples we recommend you to check out our official [LCM-LoRA docs](https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/main/en/using-diffusers/inference_with_lcm_lora)***

### Text-to-Image

The adapter can be loaded with SDv1-5 or deviratives. Here we use [`Lykon/dreamshaper-7`](https://huggingface.co/Lykon/dreamshaper-7). Next, the scheduler needs to be changed to [`LCMScheduler`](https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/v0.22.3/en/api/schedulers/lcm#diffusers.LCMScheduler) and we can reduce the number of inference steps to just 2 to 8 steps.
Please make sure to either disable `guidance_scale` or use values between 1.0 and 2.0.

```python
import torch
from diffusers import LCMScheduler, AutoPipelineForText2Image

model_id = "Lykon/dreamshaper-7"
adapter_id = "latent-consistency/lcm-lora-sdv1-5"

pipe = AutoPipelineForText2Image.from_pretrained(model_id, torch_dtype=torch.float16, variant="fp16")
pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_config(pipe.scheduler.config)
pipe.to("cuda")

# load and fuse lcm lora
pipe.load_lora_weights(adapter_id)
pipe.fuse_lora()


prompt = "Self-portrait oil painting, a beautiful cyborg with golden hair, 8k"

# disable guidance_scale by passing 0
image = pipe(prompt=prompt, num_inference_steps=4, guidance_scale=0).images[0]
```

### Image-to-Image

LCM-LoRA can be applied to image-to-image tasks too. Let's look at how we can perform image-to-image generation with LCMs. For this example we'll use the [dreamshaper-7](https://huggingface.co/Lykon/dreamshaper-7) model and the LCM-LoRA for `stable-diffusion-v1-5 `.

```python
import torch
from diffusers import AutoPipelineForImage2Image, LCMScheduler
from diffusers.utils import make_image_grid, load_image

pipe = AutoPipelineForImage2Image.from_pretrained(
    "Lykon/dreamshaper-7",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    variant="fp16",
).to("cuda")

# set scheduler
pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_config(pipe.scheduler.config)

# load LCM-LoRA
pipe.load_lora_weights("latent-consistency/lcm-lora-sdv1-5")
pipe.fuse_lora()

# prepare image
url = "https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/diffusers/img2img-init.png"
init_image = load_image(url)
prompt = "Astronauts in a jungle, cold color palette, muted colors, detailed, 8k"

# pass prompt and image to pipeline
generator = torch.manual_seed(0)
image = pipe(
    prompt,
    image=init_image,
    num_inference_steps=4,
    guidance_scale=1,
    strength=0.6,
    generator=generator
).images[0]
make_image_grid([init_image, image], rows=1, cols=2)
```

### Inpainting

LCM-LoRA can be used for inpainting as well. 

```python
import torch
from diffusers import AutoPipelineForInpainting, LCMScheduler
from diffusers.utils import load_image, make_image_grid

pipe = AutoPipelineForInpainting.from_pretrained(
    "runwayml/stable-diffusion-inpainting",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    variant="fp16",
).to("cuda")

# set scheduler
pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_config(pipe.scheduler.config)

# load LCM-LoRA
pipe.load_lora_weights("latent-consistency/lcm-lora-sdv1-5")
pipe.fuse_lora()

# load base and mask image
init_image = load_image("https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/diffusers/inpaint.png")
mask_image = load_image("https://huggingface.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/diffusers/inpaint_mask.png")

# generator = torch.Generator("cuda").manual_seed(92)
prompt = "concept art digital painting of an elven castle, inspired by lord of the rings, highly detailed, 8k"
generator = torch.manual_seed(0)
image = pipe(
    prompt=prompt,
    image=init_image,
    mask_image=mask_image,
    generator=generator,
    num_inference_steps=4,
    guidance_scale=4, 
).images[0]
make_image_grid([init_image, mask_image, image], rows=1, cols=3)
```

### ControlNet

For this example, we'll use the SD-v1-5 model and the LCM-LoRA for SD-v1-5 with canny ControlNet.

```python
import torch
import cv2
import numpy as np
from PIL import Image

from diffusers import StableDiffusionControlNetPipeline, ControlNetModel, LCMScheduler
from diffusers.utils import load_image

image = load_image(
    "https://hf.co/datasets/huggingface/documentation-images/resolve/main/diffusers/input_image_vermeer.png"
).resize((512, 512))

image = np.array(image)

low_threshold = 100
high_threshold = 200

image = cv2.Canny(image, low_threshold, high_threshold)
image = image[:, :, None]
image = np.concatenate([image, image, image], axis=2)
canny_image = Image.fromarray(image)

controlnet = ControlNetModel.from_pretrained("lllyasviel/sd-controlnet-canny", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
pipe = StableDiffusionControlNetPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5",
    controlnet=controlnet,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    safety_checker=None,
    variant="fp16"
).to("cuda")

# set scheduler
pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_config(pipe.scheduler.config)

# load LCM-LoRA
pipe.load_lora_weights("latent-consistency/lcm-lora-sdv1-5")

generator = torch.manual_seed(0)
image = pipe(
    "the mona lisa",
    image=canny_image,
    num_inference_steps=4,
    guidance_scale=1.5,
    controlnet_conditioning_scale=0.8,
    cross_attention_kwargs={"scale": 1},
    generator=generator,
).images[0]
make_image_grid([canny_image, image], rows=1, cols=2)
```
