ToonCrafter (512x320) Generative Cartoon Interpolation Model Card

<!-- Provide a quick summary of what the model is/does. -->

ToonCrafter (512x320) is a video diffusion model that <br> takes in two still images as conditioning images and text prompt describing dynamics,<br> and generates interpolation videos from them.

Model Details

Model Description

<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this model is. -->

ToonCrafter, a generative cartoon interpolation approach, aims to generate <br> short video clips (~2 seconds) from two conditioning images (starting frame and ending frame) and text prompt.

This model was trained to generate 16 video frames at a resolution of 512x320 <br> given a context frame of the same resolution.

Limitations

<!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->

• The generated videos are relatively short (2 seconds, FPS=8).
• The model cannot render legible text.
• The autoencoding part of the model is lossy, resulting in slight flickering artifacts.
