## Textual Inversion fine-tuning example
[Textual inversion](https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.01618) is a method to personalize text2image models like stable diffusion on your own images using just 3-5 examples.
The `textual_inversion.py` script shows how to implement the training procedure and adapt it for stable diffusion.

## Running locally with PyTorch
### Installing the dependencies
Before running the scripts, make sure to install the library's training dependencies:
**Important**
To make sure you can successfully run the latest versions of the example scripts, we highly recommend **installing from source** and keeping the install up to date as we update the example scripts frequently and install some example-specific requirements. To do this, execute the following steps in a new virtual environment:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers
cd diffusers
pip install .
```
Then cd in the example folder and run
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
And initialize an [🤗Accelerate](https://github.com/huggingface/accelerate/) environment with:
```bash
accelerate config
```
### Cat toy example
You need to accept the model license before downloading or using the weights. In this example we'll use model version `v1-5`, so you'll need to visit [its card](https://huggingface.co/runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5), read the license and tick the checkbox if you agree.
You have to be a registered user in 🤗 Hugging Face Hub, and you'll also need to use an access token for the code to work. For more information on access tokens, please refer to [this section of the documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/security-tokens).
Run the following command to authenticate your token
```bash
huggingface-cli login
```
If you have already cloned the repo, then you won't need to go through these steps.
Now let's get our dataset.Download 3-4 images from [here](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1fmJMs25nxS_rSNqS5hTcRdLem_YQXbq5) and save them in a directory. This will be our training data.
And launch the training using
**___Note: Change the `resolution` to 768 if you are using the [stable-diffusion-2](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2) 768x768 model.___**
```bash
export MODEL_NAME="runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5"
export DATA_DIR="path-to-dir-containing-images"
accelerate launch textual_inversion.py \
--pretrained_model_name_or_path=$MODEL_NAME \
--train_data_dir=$DATA_DIR \
--learnable_property="object" \
--placeholder_token="" --initializer_token="toy" \
--resolution=512 \
--train_batch_size=1 \
--gradient_accumulation_steps=4 \
--max_train_steps=3000 \
--learning_rate=5.0e-04 --scale_lr \
--lr_scheduler="constant" \
--lr_warmup_steps=0 \
--output_dir="textual_inversion_cat"
```
A full training run takes ~1 hour on one V100 GPU.
### Inference
Once you have trained a model using above command, the inference can be done simply using the `StableDiffusionPipeline`. Make sure to include the `placeholder_token` in your prompt.
```python
from diffusers import StableDiffusionPipeline
model_id = "path-to-your-trained-model"
pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(model_id,torch_dtype=torch.float16).to("cuda")
prompt = "A backpack"
image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=50, guidance_scale=7.5).images[0]
image.save("cat-backpack.png")
```
## Training with Flax/JAX
For faster training on TPUs and GPUs you can leverage the flax training example. Follow the instructions above to get the model and dataset before running the script.
Before running the scripts, make sure to install the library's training dependencies:
```bash
pip install -U -r requirements_flax.txt
```
```bash
export MODEL_NAME="duongna/stable-diffusion-v1-4-flax"
export DATA_DIR="path-to-dir-containing-images"
python textual_inversion_flax.py \
--pretrained_model_name_or_path=$MODEL_NAME \
--train_data_dir=$DATA_DIR \
--learnable_property="object" \
--placeholder_token="" --initializer_token="toy" \
--resolution=512 \
--train_batch_size=1 \
--max_train_steps=3000 \
--learning_rate=5.0e-04 --scale_lr \
--output_dir="textual_inversion_cat"
```
It should be at least 70% faster than the PyTorch script with the same configuration.
### Training with xformers:
You can enable memory efficient attention by [installing xFormers](https://github.com/facebookresearch/xformers#installing-xformers) and padding the `--enable_xformers_memory_efficient_attention` argument to the script. This is not available with the Flax/JAX implementation.
