sdxl-wrong-lora

A LoRA for SDXL 1.0 Base which improves output image quality after loading it and using wrong as a negative prompt during inference.

Benefits of using this LoRA:

Higher detail in textures/fabrics, particularly at full 1024x1024 resolution.
Higher color saturation and vibrance
Higher sharpness for blurry/background objects
Better at anatomically-correct hands
Less likely to have random artifacts
Appears to allow the model to follow the input prompt with a more expected behavior, particularly with prompt weighting such as the Compel syntax.

Usage

The LoRA can be loaded using load_lora_weights like any other LoRA in diffusers:

import torch
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline, AutoencoderKL

vae = AutoencoderKL.from_pretrained(
    "madebyollin/sdxl-vae-fp16-fix",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16
)
base = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
    "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
    vae=vae,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    variant="fp16",
    use_safetensors=True
)

base.load_lora_weights("minimaxir/sdxl-wrong-lora")

_ = base.to("cuda")

During inference, use wrong as the negative prompt.

Examples

Left image is the base model output (no LoRA) + refiner, right image is base (w/ LoRA) + refiner. Both generations use the same seed.

Methodology

The methodology and motivation for creating this LoRA is similar to my wrong SD 2.0 textual inversion embedding by training on a balanced variety of undesirable outputs, except trained as a LoRA since textual inversion with SDXL is complicated. The base images were generated from SDXL itself, with some prompt weighting to emphasize undesirable attributes for test images.

Notes

The intuitive way to think about how this LoRA works is that on training start, it indicates an undersirable area of the vast highdimensional latent space which the rest of the diffusion process will move away from. This may work more effectively than textual inversion but more testing needs to be done.
It's possible to use not wrong in the normal prompt itself but in testing it has not much effect.
You can use other negative prompts in conjunction with the wrong prompt but you may want to weight them appropriately.
