CLIP VS stable-diffusion

We will also need two more libraries: OpenAI’s CLIP GitHub repo, enabling us to generate image features with the CLIP model, and the umap-learn library, which will let us apply a dimensionality reduction technique called Uniform Manifold Approximation and Projection (UMAP) to those features to visualize them in 2D:

Biggest missing feature for all these self hosted photo hosting is the lack of a real search. Being able to search for things like "beach at night" is a time saver instead of browsing through hundreds or thousands of photos. There are trained neural networks out there like https://github.com/openai/CLIP which are quite good.

In computer vision, this is known as zero-shot learning, or zero-shot prediction, because the goal is to generate predictions without explicitly being given any example predictions to learn from. With the advent of high quality multimodal models like CLIP and foundation models like Segment Anything, it is now possible to generate remarkably good zero-shot predictions for a variety of computer vision tasks, including:

the first thing that comes to mind is CLIP: https://github.com/openai/CLIP

Whenever I’m working on semantic search applications that connect images and text, I start with a family of models known as contrastive language image pre-training (CLIP). These models are trained on image-text pairs to generate similar vector representations or embeddings for images and their captions, and dissimilar vectors when images are paired with other text strings. There are multiple CLIP-style models, including OpenCLIP and MetaCLIP, but for simplicity we’ll focus on the original CLIP model from OpenAI. No model is perfect, and at a fundamental level there is no right way to compare images and text, but CLIP certainly provides a good starting point.

in the modal card it says: pretrained text encoders (OpenCLIP-ViT/G and CLIP-ViT/L).

Command: "C:\StabilityMatrix\Packages\stable-diffusion-webui\venv\Scripts\python.exe" -m pip install https://github.com/openai/CLIP/archive/d50d76daa670286dd6cacf3bcd80b5e4823fc8e1.zip --prefer-binary

CLIP might work for your needs.

Yes, you can install it with Python! https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion works with macOS, and you can control all the common parameter via their WebUI or CLI :)

I'm using lstein fork ("dream") and when I create an image from the terminal, it also writes back to the terminal like this:

> Whenever I ask for something like ‘seamless tiling xxxxxx’ it kinda sorta gets the idea, but the resulting texture doesn’t quite tile right.

Getting seamless tiling requires more than just have "seamless tiling" in the prompt. It also depends on if the fork you're using has that feature at all.

https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion has the feature, but you need to pass it outside the prompt. So if you use the `dream.py` prompt cli, you can pass it `"Hats on the ground" --seamless` and it should be perfectly tilable.

Stable Diffusion Dream Script: This is the original site/script for supporting macOS. I found this soon after Stable Diffusion was publicly released and it was the site which inspired me to try out using Stable Diffusion on a mac. They have a web-based UI (as well as command-line scripts) and a lot of documentation on how to get things working.

I’m pretty sure it works for M2 as well - basically the newer ARM-based Macs. The instructions to get it working are detailed! https://github.com/lstein/stable-diffusion
