# ⚡ FlashDiffusion: FlashSDXL ⚡


Flash Diffusion is a diffusion distillation method proposed in [ADD ARXIV]() *by Clément Chadebec, Onur Tasar and Benjamin Aubin.*
This model is a **26.4M** LoRA distilled version of [SDXL](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0) model that is able to generate images in **4 steps**. The main purpose of this model is to reproduce the main results of the paper.

# 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
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline, LCMScheduler

adapter_id = "jasperai/flash-sd"

pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
  "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
  use_safetensors=True,
)

pipe.scheduler = LCMScheduler.from_pretrained(
  "stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
  subfolder="scheduler",
  timestep_spacing="trailing",
)
pipe.to("cuda")

# Fuse and load LoRA weights
pipe.load_lora_weights(adapter_id)
pipe.fuse_lora()

prompt = "A raccoon reading a book in a lush forest."

image = pipe(prompt, num_inference_steps=4, guidance_scale=0).images[0]
```
