Getting Started

Install

Refiners is still an early stage project, and we do not release minor versions yet. We recommend installing the latest version via a git install:

pip install git+https://github.com/finegrain-ai/refiners.git

To include the training utils, use:

pip install 'refiners[training] @ git+https://github.com/finegrain-ai/refiners.git'

Hello World

Goal: turn Refiners' mascot into a Dragon Quest Slime plush in a one-shot manner thanks to a powerful combo of adapters:

  • IP-Adapter: to capture the Slime plush visual appearance into an image prompt (no prompt engineering needed)
  • T2I-Adapter: to guide the generation with the mascot's geometry
  • Self-Attention-Guidance (SAG): to increase the sharpness

hello world overview

Step 1: convert SDXL weights to the Refiners' format:

python scripts/conversion/convert_transformers_clip_text_model.py --from "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0" --subfolder2 text_encoder_2 --to clip_text_xl.safetensors --half
python scripts/conversion/convert_diffusers_unet.py --from "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0" --to unet_xl.safetensors --half
python scripts/conversion/convert_diffusers_autoencoder_kl.py --from "madebyollin/sdxl-vae-fp16-fix" --subfolder "" --to lda_xl.safetensors --half

Note: this will download the original weights from https://huggingface.co/ which takes some time. If you already have this repo cloned locally, use the --from /path/to/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0 option instead.

And then convert IP-Adapter and T2I-Adapter weights (note: SAG is parameter-free):

python scripts/conversion/convert_diffusers_t2i_adapter.py --from "TencentARC/t2i-adapter-canny-sdxl-1.0" --to t2i_canny_xl.safetensors --half
python scripts/conversion/convert_transformers_clip_image_model.py --from "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2-1-unclip" --to clip_image.safetensors --half
curl -LO https://huggingface.co/h94/IP-Adapter/resolve/main/sdxl_models/ip-adapter_sdxl_vit-h.bin
python scripts/conversion/convert_diffusers_ip_adapter.py --from ip-adapter_sdxl_vit-h.bin --half

Step 2: download input images:

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/finegrain-ai/refiners/main/assets/dropy_logo.png
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/finegrain-ai/refiners/main/assets/dropy_canny.png
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/finegrain-ai/refiners/main/assets/dragon_quest_slime.jpg

Step 3: generate an image using the GPU:

import torch

from PIL import Image

from refiners.foundationals.latent_diffusion.stable_diffusion_xl import StableDiffusion_XL
from refiners.foundationals.latent_diffusion import SDXLIPAdapter, SDXLT2IAdapter
from refiners.fluxion.utils import manual_seed, no_grad, image_to_tensor, load_from_safetensors

# Load inputs
init_image = Image.open("dropy_logo.png")
image_prompt = Image.open("dragon_quest_slime.jpg")
condition_image = Image.open("dropy_canny.png")

# Load SDXL
sdxl = StableDiffusion_XL(device="cuda", dtype=torch.float16)
sdxl.clip_text_encoder.load_from_safetensors("clip_text_xl.safetensors")
sdxl.lda.load_from_safetensors("lda_xl.safetensors")
sdxl.unet.load_from_safetensors("unet_xl.safetensors")

# Load and inject adapters
ip_adapter = SDXLIPAdapter(target=sdxl.unet, weights=load_from_safetensors("ip-adapter_sdxl_vit-h.safetensors"))
ip_adapter.clip_image_encoder.load_from_safetensors("clip_image.safetensors")
ip_adapter.inject()

t2i_adapter = SDXLT2IAdapter(
    target=sdxl.unet, name="canny", weights=load_from_safetensors("t2i_canny_xl.safetensors")
).inject()

# Tune parameters
seed = 9752
first_step = 1
ip_adapter.set_scale(0.85)
t2i_adapter.set_scale(0.8)
sdxl.set_num_inference_steps(50)
sdxl.set_self_attention_guidance(enable=True, scale=0.75)

with no_grad():
    # Note: default text prompts for IP-Adapter
    clip_text_embedding, pooled_text_embedding = sdxl.compute_clip_text_embedding(
        text="best quality, high quality", negative_text="monochrome, lowres, bad anatomy, worst quality, low quality"
    )
    clip_image_embedding = ip_adapter.compute_clip_image_embedding(ip_adapter.preprocess_image(image_prompt))
    ip_adapter.set_clip_image_embedding(clip_image_embedding)
    time_ids = sdxl.default_time_ids

    condition = image_to_tensor(condition_image.convert("RGB"), device=sdxl.device, dtype=sdxl.dtype)
    t2i_adapter.set_condition_features(features=t2i_adapter.compute_condition_features(condition))

    manual_seed(seed=seed)
    x = sdxl.init_latents(size=(1024, 1024), init_image=init_image, first_step=first_step).to(
        device=sdxl.device, dtype=sdxl.dtype
    )

    for step in sdxl.steps[first_step:]:
        x = sdxl(
            x,
            step=step,
            clip_text_embedding=clip_text_embedding,
            pooled_text_embedding=pooled_text_embedding,
            time_ids=time_ids,
        )
    predicted_image = sdxl.lda.decode_latents(x=x)

predicted_image.save("output.png")
print("done: see output.png")

You should get:

dropy slime output

Training

Refiners has a built-in training utils library and provides scripts that can be used as a starting point.

E.g. to train a LoRA on top of Stable Diffusion, copy and edit configs/finetune-lora.toml to suit your needs and launch the training as follows:

python scripts/training/finetune-ldm-lora.py configs/finetune-lora.toml

Adapter Zoo

For now, given finegrain's mission, we are focusing on image edition tasks. We support:

Adapter Foundation Model
LoRA SD15 SDXL
ControlNets SD15
Ref Only Control SD15
IP-Adapter SD15 SDXL
T2I-Adapter SD15 SDXL

Motivation

At Finegrain, we're on a mission to automate product photography. Given our "no human in the loop approach", nailing the quality of the outputs we generate is paramount to our success.

That's why we're building Refiners.

It's a framework to easily bridge the last mile quality gap of foundational models like Stable Diffusion or Segment Anything Model (SAM), by adapting them to specific tasks with lightweight trainable and composable patches.

We decided to build Refiners in the open.

It's because model adaptation is a new paradigm that goes beyond our specific use cases. Our hope is to help people looking at creating their own adapters save time, whatever the foundation model they're using.

Design Pillars

We are huge fans of PyTorch (we actually were core committers to Torch in another life), but we felt it's too low level for the specific model adaptation task: PyTorch models are generally hard to understand, and their adaptation requires intricate ad hoc code.

Instead, we needed:

  • A model structure that's human readable so that you know what models do and how they work right here, right now
  • A mechanism to easily inject parameters in some target layers, or between them
  • A way to easily pass data (like a conditioning input) between layers even when deeply nested
  • Native support for iconic adapter types like LoRAs and their community trained incarnations (hosted on Civitai and the likes)

Refiners is designed to tackle all these challenges while remaining just one abstraction away from our beloved PyTorch.

Key Concepts

The Chain class

The Chain class is at the core of Refiners. It basically lets you express models as a composition of basic layers (linear, convolution, attention, etc) in a declarative way.

E.g.: this is how a Vision Transformer (ViT) looks like with Refiners:

import torch
import refiners.fluxion.layers as fl

class ViT(fl.Chain):
    # The Vision Transformer model structure is entirely defined in the constructor. It is
    # ready-to-use right after i.e. no need to implement any forward function or add extra logic
    def __init__(
        self,
        embedding_dim: int = 512,
        patch_size: int = 16,
        image_size: int = 384,
        num_layers: int = 12,
        num_heads: int = 8,
    ):
        num_patches = (image_size // patch_size)
        super().__init__(
            fl.Conv2d(in_channels=3, out_channels=embedding_dim, kernel_size=patch_size, stride=patch_size),
            fl.Reshape(num_patches**2, embedding_dim),
            # The Residual layer implements the so-called skip-connection, i.e. x + F(x).
            # Here the patch embeddings (x) are summed with the position embeddings (F(x)) whose
            # weights are stored in the Parameter layer (note: there is no extra classification
            # token in this toy example)
            fl.Residual(fl.Parameter(num_patches**2, embedding_dim)),
            # These are the transformer encoders:
            *(

                            embedding_dim=embedding_dim,
                            num_heads=num_heads,

The Context API

The Chain class has a context provider that allows you to pass data to layers even when deeply nested.

E.g. to implement cross-attention you would just need to modify the ViT model like in the toy example below:

The Adapter API

The Adapter API lets you easily patch models by injecting parameters in targeted layers. It comes with built-in support for canonical adapter types like LoRA, but you can also implement your custom adapters with it.

E.g. to inject LoRA layers in all attention's linear layers:

from refiners.fluxion.adapters.lora import SingleLoraAdapter

for layer in vit.layers(fl.Attention):
    for linear, parent in layer.walk(fl.Linear):
        SingleLoraAdapter(target=linear, rank=64).inject(parent)

# ... and load existing weights if the LoRAs are pretrained ...
