(Select HiDiffusion samples for various diffusion models, resolutions, and aspect ratios.)
- A training-free method that increases the resolution and speed of pretrained diffusion models.
- Designed as a plug-and-play implementation. It can be integrated into diffusion pipelines by only adding a single line of code!
- Supports various tasks, including text-to-image, image-to-image, inpainting.
(Faster, and better image details.)
(2K results of ControlNet and inpainting tasks.)
-

After installing the packages in the main requirements, install HiDiffusion:
pip3 install hidiffusionAlternatively, you can install from github source. Clone the repository and install:
git clone https://github.com/megvii-model/HiDiffusion.git
cd HiDiffusion
python3 setup.py installGenerating outputs with HiDiffusion is super easy based on 🤗 diffusers. You just need to add a single line of code.
