Pipeline for text-guided image super-resolution using Stable Diffusion 2.

This model inherits from DiffusionPipeline. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods implemented for all pipelines (downloading, saving, running on a particular device, etc.).

The pipeline also inherits the following loading methods:

- load_textual_inversion() for loading textual inversion embeddings
- load_lora_weights() for loading LoRA weights
- save_lora_weights() for saving LoRA weights
- from_single_file() for loading `.ckpt` files

StableDiffusionPipelineOutput or `tuple`

Parameters

- prompt (`str` or `List[str]`, optional) — The prompt or prompts to guide image generation. If not defined, you need to pass `prompt_embeds`.
- image (`torch.FloatTensor`, `PIL.Image.Image`, `np.ndarray`, `List[torch.FloatTensor]`, `List[PIL.Image.Image]`, or `List[np.ndarray]`) — `Image` or tensor representing an image batch to be upscaled.
- num_inference_steps (`int`, optional, defaults to 50) — The number of denoising steps. More denoising steps usually lead to a higher quality image at the expense of slower inference.
- guidance_scale (`float`, optional, defaults to 7.5) — A higher guidance scale value encourages the model to generate images closely linked to the text `prompt` at the expense of lower image quality. Guidance scale is enabled when `guidance_scale > 1`.
- negative_prompt (`str` or `List[str]`, optional) — The prompt or prompts to guide what to not include in image generation. If not defined, you need to pass `negative_prompt_embeds` instead. Ignored when not using guidance (`guidance_scale < 1`).
- num_images_per_prompt (`int`, optional, defaults to 1) — The number of images to generate per prompt.
- eta (`float`, optional, defaults to 0.0) — Corresponds to parameter eta (η) from the DDIM paper. Only applies to the DDIMScheduler, and is ignored in other schedulers.
- generator (`torch.Generator` or `List[torch.Generator]`, optional) — A `torch.Generator` to make generation deterministic.
- latents (`torch.FloatTensor`, optional) — Pre-generated noisy latents sampled from a Gaussian distribution, to be used as inputs for image generation. Can be used to tweak the same generation with different prompts. If not provided, a latents tensor is generated by sampling using the supplied random `generator`.
- prompt_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor`, optional) — Pre-generated text embeddings. Can be used to easily tweak text inputs (prompt weighting). If not provided, text embeddings are generated from the `prompt` input argument.
- negative_prompt_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor`, optional) — Pre-generated negative text embeddings. Can be used to easily tweak text inputs (prompt weighting). If not provided, `negative_prompt_embeds` are generated from the `negative_prompt` input argument.
- output_type (`str`, optional, defaults to `"pil"`) — The output format of the generated image. Choose between `PIL.Image` or `np.array`.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional, defaults to `True`) — Whether or not to return a StableDiffusionPipelineOutput instead of a plain tuple.
- callback (`Callable`, optional) — A function that calls every `callback_steps` steps during inference. The function is called with the following arguments: `callback(step: int, timestep: int, latents: torch.FloatTensor)`.
- callback_steps (`int`, optional, defaults to 1) — The frequency at which the `callback` function is called. If not specified, the callback is called at every step.
- cross_attention_kwargs (`dict`, optional) — A kwargs dictionary that if specified is passed along to the `AttentionProcessor` as defined in `self.processor`.
- clip_skip (`int`, optional) — Number of layers to be skipped from CLIP while computing the prompt embeddings. A value of 1 means that the output of the pre-final layer will be used for computing the prompt embeddings.

Returns

StableDiffusionPipelineOutput or `tuple`

If `return_dict` is `True`, StableDiffusionPipelineOutput is returned, otherwise a `tuple` is returned where the first element is a list with the generated images and the second element is a list of `bool`s indicating whether the corresponding generated image contains “not-safe-for-work” (nsfw) content.

The call function to the pipeline for generation.

Examples:

    >>> import requests
    >>> from PIL import Image
    >>> from io import BytesIO
    >>> from diffusers import StableDiffusionUpscalePipeline
    >>> import torch

    >>> # load model and scheduler
    >>> model_id = "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-x4-upscaler"
    >>> pipeline = StableDiffusionUpscalePipeline.from_pretrained(
    ...     model_id, revision="fp16", torch_dtype=torch.float16
    ... )
    >>> pipeline = pipeline.to("cuda")

    >>> # let's download an  image
    >>> url = "https://huggingface.co/datasets/hf-internal-testing/diffusers-images/resolve/main/sd2-upscale/low_res_cat.png"
    >>> response = requests.get(url)
    >>> low_res_img = Image.open(BytesIO(response.content)).convert("RGB")
    >>> low_res_img = low_res_img.resize((128, 128))
    >>> prompt = "a white cat"

    >>> upscaled_image = pipeline(prompt=prompt, image=low_res_img).images[0]
    >>> upscaled_image.save("upsampled_cat.png")

####
enable_attention_slicing

< source >

( slice_size: Union = 'auto' )

Parameters

- slice_size (`str` or `int`, optional, defaults to `"auto"`) — When `"auto"`, halves the input to the attention heads, so attention will be computed in two steps. If `"max"`, maximum amount of memory will be saved by running only one slice at a time. If a number is provided, uses as many slices as `attention_head_dim // slice_size`. In this case, `attention_head_dim` must be a multiple of `slice_size`.

Enable sliced attention computation. When this option is enabled, the attention module splits the input tensor in slices to compute attention in several steps. For more than one attention head, the computation is performed sequentially over each head. This is useful to save some memory in exchange for a small speed decrease.

⚠️ Don’t enable attention slicing if you’re already using `scaled_dot_product_attention` (SDPA) from PyTorch 2.0 or xFormers. These attention computations are already very memory efficient so you won’t need to enable this function. If you enable attention slicing with SDPA or xFormers, it can lead to serious slow downs!

Examples:

    >>> import torch
    >>> from diffusers import StableDiffusionPipeline

    >>> pipe = StableDiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
    ...     "runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5",
    ...     torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    ...     use_safetensors=True,
    ... )

    >>> prompt = "a photo of an astronaut riding a horse on mars"
    >>> pipe.enable_attention_slicing()
    >>> image = pipe(prompt).images[0]

####
disable_attention_slicing

< source >

( )

Disable sliced attention computation. If `enable_attention_slicing` was previously called, attention is computed in one step.

####
enable_xformers_memory_efficient_attention

< source >

( attention_op: Optional = None )

Parameters

- attention_op (`Callable`, optional) — Override the default `None` operator for use as `op` argument to the `memory_efficient_attention()` function of xFormers.

Enable memory efficient attention from xFormers. When this option is enabled, you should observe lower GPU memory usage and a potential speed up during inference. Speed up during training is not guaranteed.

⚠️ When memory efficient attention and sliced attention are both enabled, memory efficient attention takes precedent.

Examples:

    >>> import torch
    >>> from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
    >>> from xformers.ops import MemoryEfficientAttentionFlashAttentionOp

    >>> pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained("stabilityai/stable-diffusion-2-1", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
    >>> pipe = pipe.to("cuda")
    >>> pipe.enable_xformers_memory_efficient_attention(attention_op=MemoryEfficientAttentionFlashAttentionOp)
    >>> # Workaround for not accepting attention shape using VAE for Flash Attention
    >>> pipe.vae.enable_xformers_memory_efficient_attention(attention_op=None)

- b1 (`float`) — Scaling factor for stage 1 to amplify the contributions of backbone features.
- b2 (`float`) — Scaling factor for stage 2 to amplify the contributions of backbone features.

Enables the FreeU mechanism as in https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.11497.

The suffixes after the scaling factors represent the stages where they are being applied.
