This work presents a versatile image-to-image visual assistant, PixWizard, designed for image generation, manipulation, and translation based on free-from user instructions. [📖 Paper]

• ✅ Release the Paper
• ✅ Release the Model
• ✅ Release the Code
• • Supported in the diffusers

1. Clone this repository and navigate to PixWizard folder

git clone https://github.com/AFeng-x/PixWizard.git
cd PixWizard

2. nvcc Check

Before installation, ensure that you have a working nvcc

# The command should work and show the same version number as in our case. (12.1 in our case).
nvcc --version

On some outdated distros (e.g., CentOS 7), you may also want to check that a late enough version of gcc is available

# The command should work and show a version of at least 6.0.
# If not, consult distro-specific tutorials to obtain a newer version or build manually.
gcc --version

3. Install packages

# Create a new conda environment named 'PixWizard
conda create -n PixWizard -y
# Activate the 'sphinx-v' environment
conda activate PixWizard
# Install python and pytorch
conda install python=3.11 pytorch==2.1.0 torchvision==0.16.0 torchaudio==2.1.0 pytorch-cuda=12.1 -c pytorch -c nvidia -y
# Install required packages from 'requirements.txt'
pip install -r requirements.txt
# Install Flash-Attention
pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation

run the following command:

bash exps/inference_pixwizard.sh

• Prepare data

  • First, refer to the provided annotation_example to prepare your own training dataset.
  • Second, refer to s1.yaml and s2.yaml to write your prepared annotation JSON.

• Run training

  • Place the downloaded weights for clip-vit-large-patch14-336 in the models/clip directory.
  • Update the model paths and data path in the script then run it.
