What is ControlNet?
This implementation of ControlNet is specifically designed for anime-style image generation, built on top of the Waifu Diffusion 1.5 Beta2 model. It provides three distinct control mechanisms: edge detection, depth perception, and pose control, each trained on specialized datasets.
Implementation Details
The model consists of three main components, each trained with different parameters: A canny edge detector trained on 71k images across multiple epochs, a depth perception model trained on 71k images, and a pose control model initially trained on 14k Umamusume images and fine-tuned with 52k general images.
- Training utilized bfloat16 amp for all components
- Batch sizes of 8-16 were used across different training phases
- Learning rates varied from 5e-5 to 1e-5 during training
Core Capabilities
- Edge Detection: Precise control over image outlines and boundaries
- Depth Perception: Accurate handling of spatial relationships
- Pose Control: Specialized control over character poses, with particular strength in anime-style characters
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes this model unique?
