zeromodels/sdxl-turbo

Paper: SDXL: Improving Latent Diffusion Models for High-Resolution Image Synthesis (arXiv:2307.01952) | HF Papers

Pure-Keras 3 conversion of stabilityai/sdxl-turbo for zeromodels. One implementation runs unmodified on TensorFlow / Torch / JAX. The whole text-to-image model ships as one container: the UNet denoiser, the VAE and the CLIP ViT-L/14 and OpenCLIP ViT-bigG/14 text encoders (penultimate layers) in model.weights.json shards (3.47B parameters, 6.62 GB), plus zm_config.json (the four component configs, the checkpoint's EulerAncestralDiscreteScheduler schedule with its epsilon objective and the default generation settings) and the tokenizer as tokenizer.json. Weights are stored in float16, the checkpoint's native precision (the VAE in float32: it overflows in float16), and load in float16 by default; pass load_dtype="float32" to from_weights for a float32 model. This checkpoint generates 512x512 images (a 64x64 latent).

For model details, intended use and limitations, see the upstream model card.

Architecture

Quick start

import os
os.environ["KERAS_BACKEND"] = "torch"  # or "jax" / "tensorflow"

from PIL import Image
from zeromodels.diffusers import ZMDiffusion, ZMDiffusionTokenizer

model = ZMDiffusion.from_weights("zeromodels/sdxl-turbo")
tokenizer = ZMDiffusionTokenizer.from_weights("zeromodels/sdxl-turbo")

inputs = tokenizer("a photograph of an astronaut riding a horse")
images = model.generate(**inputs, num_inference_steps=1, guidance_scale=0.0, seed=0)
Image.fromarray(images[0]).save("astronaut.png")  # (512, 512, 3) uint8

generate takes the tokenizer's input_ids (batch them for several prompts), an optional negative_input_ids (tokenize the negative prompt), num_inference_steps, guidance_scale, a seed, or explicit latents of shape (batch, 64, 64, 4) for results that are identical across backends.

Load any Stable Diffusion XL checkpoint the same way with from_weights("zeromodels/<variant>"):

Tips

• Set KERAS_BACKEND before importing Keras / zeromodels.
• AutoZModel / AutoZMTokenizer (from zeromodels import ...) load this repo too; they resolve to ZMDiffusion / ZMDiffusionTokenizer from its model_type.
• The graphs are built for 512px. Pass unet_sample_size=<px / 8>, vae_sample_size=<px> to from_weights to build for another multiple of 64px (the weights are resolution-independent).
• Swap the sampler any time: model.scheduler = EulerDiscreteScheduler.from_config(model.config.scheduler_config) (zeromodels.base.base_scheduler).
• The trained components are attributes of the loaded ZMDiffusion (UNet / VAE / text encoders as .unet / .vae / .text_encoder / .text_encoder_2), each callable on its own.
• SDXL micro-conditioning: generate(..., original_size=(h, w), crops_coords_top_left=(top, left), target_size=(h, w)), plus negative_* variants; the sizes default to the image size. Without a negative prompt the unconditional branch is zero embeddings (force_zeros_for_empty_prompt), as in diffusers.
• Both channels_last and channels_first are supported (keras.config.set_image_data_format before loading); generate always returns (batch, H, W, 3) uint8.
• On-the-fly hf: conversion is not supported for diffusion models; the checkpoints are hosted here, converted once.
• See the Stable Diffusion XL docs.

Modifications by zeromodels (https://github.com/IMvision12/ZeroModels): the checkpoint released at https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/sdxl-turbo was converted to the Keras 3 weights layout of zeromodels (model.weights.json, model_00000.weights.h5, model_00001.weights.h5, zm_config.json, tokenizer.json), stored in float16, the upstream fp16 files, with the VAE in float32. The model architecture and the parameter values are unchanged; the weight names and the file format differ from the release.
