taming-transformers VS CodeFormer

taming-transformers

What’s your goal exactly? Are you trying to make a transformer based auto encoder of audio spectrograms? If so you should either start with either a proven ViT-based AE implementation (either a VAE or a VQ-GAN). But I don’t see why you necessarily need a ViT for this, if you’re working at a much smaller scale a convolutional architecture is plenty and much more amenable to beginners. See https://github.com/CompVis/taming-transformers for an example of a convolutional VQ GAN.

Command: "git" clone "https://github.com/CompVis/taming-transformers.git" "C:\AI\stable-diffusion-webui\repositories\taming-transformers"

See https://arxiv.org/abs/2012.09841 for prior work. SD authors swap out the Transformer and language modelling objective with a UNet diffusion objective. In general, the more inductive bias your model has, the more efficient it can be. ChatGPT runs purely on a Transformer architecture, which has far fewer priors than a CNN and requires far more parameters as a result. This may not be the case in the future.

There is definitely a cmd but I can't tell you. It's on GitHub https://github.com/CompVis/taming-transformers

I wasn’t able to find a “taming” folder within the site-packages folder so I decided to look up how to get VectorQuantizer2 and taming.modules.vqvae.quantize and found this link: https://github.com/CompVis/taming-transformers/blob/master/taming/modules/vqvae/quantize.py I copied the raw contents and pasted that to the terminal and I got this error: “zsh: parse error near `)’” I’m not sure how to fix this so I can install VectorQuantizer2 so I can use InvokeAI. How do I fix this?

I say this to everyone... Even if SD and the model is legit and legal. Do not go around commercialising it's outputs or claiming ownership over them... and if you do the properly cite the source of the model and system along with it. In https://github.com/CompVis/stable-diffusion, https://github.com/CompVis/taming-transformers and https://huggingface.co/CompVis/stable-diffusion-v1-4 there are citiations provided for you to use for a reason. I recommend you to use them.

CodeFormer

https://github.com/sczhou/CodeFormer like this, did you install anything???

https://github.com/sczhou/CodeFormer/releases/download/v0.1.0/codeformer.pth to /stable-diffusion-webui/models/Codeformer/codeformer-v0.1.0.pth

I just watched a youtube video of two minute papers and I was impressed by this face restauration ai.

Have you tried this instead? https://github.com/sczhou/CodeFormer , you can try it at https://replicate.com/sczhou/codeformer

CodeFormer is another good alternative to GFPGAN if you're not pleased with its results.
