This repository provides the FAST image/video checkpoints, pretrained dependencies, and annotator implementations and weights.

This repository preserves the local directory layout expected by the FAST code. Model files are regular files rather than links to the original author's Hugging Face cache. It contains 659 asset files, approximately 19.82 GiB in total, including the 593 files in model/annotator/ (approximately 1.08 GiB). Datasets are not included.

Download and use

Install the Hugging Face CLI, then run the following commands from the FAST code directory:

hf download wd1511/fast-ldm --include 'checkpoint/**' --local-dir .
hf download wd1511/fast-ldm --include 'pretrained_models/**' --local-dir .
hf download wd1511/fast-ldm --include 'model/annotator/**' --local-dir .
python -m test_sh.test_image --limit 1
python -m test_sh.test_video --limit 1

These commands use the prepared FAST source release with test_sh/test_image.py and test_sh/test_video.py; publication of that code is separate from this model upload. The commands above place model/annotator/ in the expected local directory. Test inputs must be prepared separately as described in docs/ASSETS.md in that source release. Use the image and video checkpoints with their corresponding custom FAST pipelines; these are not drop-in replacements for a standard Stable Diffusion UNet.

FAST checkpoints include their VGG feature extractor parameters. The provided inference scripts load those parameters from the checkpoint without separately downloading VGG.

Upstream components

The pretrained_models/ directory contains dependencies used by FAST, rather than models newly trained for this release: Stable Diffusion v1.5, DPT Hybrid MiDaS, HED and OneFormer COCO. The bundled model/annotator/ directory includes the corresponding third-party implementations, configuration files, license files present in the source package, and additional OneFormer/Uniformer weights. Their original authorship and applicable upstream licenses are retained; inclusion here does not relicense these components.
