ncnn VS InvokeAI

ncnn uses Vulkan for GPU acceleration, I've seen it used in a few projects to get AMD hardware support.

They're using NCNN to package the model. Have a look. https://github.com/Tencent/NCNN

Hi. Here is my prefered android app for realtime objet detection: https://github.com/nihui/ncnn-android-nanodet ; https://github.com/Tencent/ncnn contains a lot of android demo app for a lot of models.

Yes, Android devices tend to have bigger RAMs, making running 1024x1024 possible (this is not possible at all on iPhones, which could peak around 5GiB memory with my current implementation, some serious engineering required to bring that down on iPhone devices). The problem is I am not sure about speed. I would likely switch to NCNN (https://github.com/Tencent/ncnn) as the backend which have a decent Vulkan computing kernel support. It is definitely a possibility and there is a path to do that.

As the leading open-source inference framework in China and in the world, what we like are its almost zero cost cross-platform capability, high inference speed, and minimal deployment volume. (Project address: https://github.com/Tencent/ncnn)

If you’re not planning on training the neural net on an embedded device and just do inference, this might interest you: https://github.com/Tencent/ncnn

Probably not, since I have no idea what you're talking about. I've just been using the models that InvokeAI (2.3, I only just now saw there's a 3.0) downloads for me [0]. The SD1.5 one is as good as ever, but the SD2 model introduces artifacts on (many, but not all) faces and copyrighted characters.

I actually used the rocm/pytorch image you also linked.

I'm not sure what you're pointing to with your reference to the Fedora-based images. I'm quite happy with my NixOS install and really don't want to switch to anything else. And as long as I have the correct kernel module, my host OS really shouldn't matter to run any of the images.

And I'm sure it can be made to work with many base images, my point was just that the dependency management around pytorch was in a bad state, where it is extremely easy to break.

> Anyways, hopefully this PR fixes the immediate issue: https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/pull/5714/files

It does! At least for me. It is my PR after all ;)

The data being flagged is not in that github repo, it's fetched from elsewhere and I don't fancy spending time looking for it. The alert is for 'Sirefef!cfg' which has been reported as a false positive with a bunch of other stable diffusion projects (https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/101zjec/trojanwin32sirefefcfg_an_apparently_common_false/, https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/xmhukb/trojan_in_waifudiffusion_model_file/, https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/issues/2773 )

I haven’t tried it recently, but InvokeAI runs on Mac. Invoke. I used to run on my MacBook, but have since gotten a Win laptop.

There are already a number of local, inference options that are (crucially) open-source, with more robust feature sets.

And if the defense here is "but Auto1111 and Comfy don't have as user-friendly a UI", that's also already covered. https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI

https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI should work on your machine. For LLM models, the smaller ones should run using llama.cpp, but I don't think you'll be happy comparing them to ChatGPT.

Stable Diffusion. /r/stablediffusion There are many tutorials on how to set it up locally and use it. InvokeAI is the easiest way to set it up. https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI
