# ⚡ FlashDiffusion: FlashPixart ⚡
Flash Diffusion is a diffusion distillation method proposed in [ADD ARXIV]() *by Clément Chadebec, Onur Tasar, Eyal Benaroche, and Benjamin Aubin.*
This model is a **66.5M** LoRA distilled version of Pixart-α model that is able to generate 1024x1024 images in **4 steps**. See our [live demo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/jasperai/FlashPixart).

# How to use?
The model can be used using the `StableDiffusionPipeline` from `diffusers` library directly. It can allow reducing the number of required sampling steps to **2-4 steps**.
```python
import torch
from diffusers import PixArtAlphaPipeline, Transformer2DModel, LCMScheduler
from peft import PeftModel
# Load LoRA
transformer = Transformer2DModel.from_pretrained(
"PixArt-alpha/PixArt-XL-2-1024-MS",
subfolder="transformer",
torch_dtype=torch.float16
)
transformer = PeftModel.from_pretrained(
transformer,
"jasperai/flash-pixart"
)
# Pipeline
pipe = PixArtAlphaPipeline.from_pretrained(
"PixArt-alpha/PixArt-XL-2-1024-MS",
transformer=transformer,
torch_dtype=torch.float16
)
# Scheduler
pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_pretrained(
"PixArt-alpha/PixArt-XL-2-1024-MS",
subfolder="scheduler",
timestep_spacing="trailing",
)
pipe.to("cuda")
prompt = "A raccoon reading a book in a lush forest."
image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=4, guidance_scale=0).images[0]
```

# Training Details
The model was trained for 40k iterations on 4 H100 GPUs (representing approximately 188 hours of training). Please refer to the [paper]() for further parameters details.
**Metrics on COCO 2014 validation (Table 4)**
- FID-10k: 29.30 (4 NFE)
- CLIP Score: 0.303 (4 NFE)
