The pure C++ text-to-image pipeline, driven by the OpenVINO native API for Stable Diffusion v1.5 with LMS Discrete Scheduler, supports both static and dynamic model inference. It includes advanced features like LoRA integration with safetensors and OpenVINO extension for tokenizers. This demo has been tested on Windows and Linux platform.
Note
This tutorial assumes that the current working directory is <openvino.genai repo>/image_generation/stable_diffusion_1_5/cpp/
and all paths are relative to this folder.
C++ Packages:
Prepare a python environment and install dependencies:
conda create -n openvino_sd_cpp python==3.10
conda activate openvino_sd_cpp
conda install openvino eigen c-compiler cxx-compiler make
- Install dependencies to import models from HuggingFace:
conda activate openvino_sd_cpp
python -m pip install -r scripts/requirements.txt
python -m pip install ../../../thirdparty/openvino_contrib/modules/custom_operations/[transformers]
- Download a huggingface SD v1.5 model like:
- runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5
- dreamlike-anime-1.0 to run Stable Diffusion with LoRA adapters.
Example command:
huggingface-cli download --resume-download --local-dir-use-symlinks False dreamlike-art/dreamlike-anime-1.0 --local-dir models/dreamlike-anime-1.0
Please, refer to the official website for model downloading to read more details.
- Run model conversion script to convert PyTorch model to OpenVINO IR via optimum-intel. Please, use the script
scripts/convert_model.py
to convert the model intoFP16_static
orFP16_dyn
, which will be saved into themodels
folder:
cd scripts
python convert_model.py -b 1 -t FP16 -sd ../models/dreamlike-anime-1.0 # to convert to models with static shapes
python convert_model.py -b 1 -t FP16 -sd ../models/dreamlike-anime-1.0 -dyn True # to keep models with dynamic shapes
python convert_model.py -b 1 -t INT8 -sd ../models/dreamlike-anime-1.0 -dyn True # to compress the models to INT8
Note
Now the pipeline support batch size = 1 only, i.e. static model (1, 3, 512, 512)
Refer to python pipeline blog.
The safetensor model is loaded via safetensors.h. The layer name and weight are modified with Eigen Lib
and inserted into the SD model with ov::pass::MatcherPass
in the file common/diffusers/src/lora.cpp.
SD model dreamlike-anime-1.0 and Lora soulcard are tested in this pipeline.
Download and put safetensors and model IR into the models folder.
conda activate openvino_sd_cpp
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -S . -B build
cmake --build build --parallel
./stable_diffusion [-p <posPrompt>] [-n <negPrompt>] [-s <seed>] [--height <output image>] [--width <output image>] [-d <device>] [-r <readNPLatent>] [-l <lora.safetensors>] [-a <alpha>] [-h <help>] [-m <modelPath>] [-t <modelType>]
Usage:
stable_diffusion [OPTION...]
-p, --posPrompt arg
Initial positive prompt for SD (default: cyberpunk cityscape like Tokyo New York with tall buildings at dusk golden hour cinematic lighting)-n, --negPrompt arg
Default is empty with space (default: )-d, --device arg
AUTO, CPU, or GPU (default: CPU)--step arg
Number of diffusion step ( default: 20)-s, --seed arg
Number of random seed to generate latent (default: 42)--num arg
Number of image output(default: 1)--height arg
Height of output image (default: 512)--width arg
Width of output image (default: 512)-c, --useCache
Use model caching-r, --readNPLatent
Read numpy generated latents from file-m, --modelPath arg
Specify path of SD model IR (default: ../models/dreamlike-anime-1.0)-t, --type arg
Specify the type of SD model IR (FP16_static or FP16_dyn) (default: FP16_static)-l, --loraPath arg
Specify path of lora file. (*.safetensors). (default: )-a, --alpha arg
alpha for lora (default: 0.75)-h, --help
Print usage
Positive prompt: cyberpunk cityscape like Tokyo New York with tall buildings at dusk golden hour cinematic lighting
Negative prompt: (empty, here couldn't use OV tokenizer, check the issues for details)
Read the numpy latent instead of C++ std lib for the alignment with Python pipeline
-
Generate image without lora
./stable_diffusion -r
-
Generate image with soulcard lora
./stable_diffusion -r
-
Generate different size image with dynamic model (C++ lib generated latent):
./stable_diffusion -m ../models/dreamlike-anime-1.0 -t FP16_dyn --height 448 --width 704
For the generation quality, be careful with the negative prompt and random latent generation. C++ random generation with MT19937 results is differ from numpy.random.randn()
. Hence, please use -r, --readNPLatent
for the alignment with Python (this latent file is for output image 512X512 only)
