**Data Explanation**
+ All inference tests were conducted on a single A100 GPU with a batch size of 4,
using `PYTORCH_CUDA_ALLOC_CONF=expandable_segments:True` to save memory.
+ The models only support English input. Other languages can be translated into English when refining with large models.
+ This test environment uses the `SAT` framework. Many optimization points are not yet complete, and we will work with
the community to create a version of the model for the `diffusers` library. Once the `diffusers` repository is
supported, we will test using `diffusers`. The release is expected in November 2024.
## Quick Start
### Prompt Optimization
Although CogView3 series models are trained with long image descriptions, we highly recommend rewriting prompts using
large language models (LLMs) before generating text-to-image, as this will significantly improve generation quality.
We provide an [example script](prompt_optimize.py). We suggest running this script to refine the prompt:
```shell
python prompt_optimize.py --api_key "Zhipu AI API Key" --prompt {your prompt} --base_url "https://open.bigmodel.cn/api/paas/v4" --model "glm-4-plus"
```
### Inference Model (Diffusers)
First, ensure the `diffusers` library is installed **from source**.
```
pip install git+https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers.git
```
Then, run the following code:
```python
from diffusers import CogView3PlusPipeline
import torch
pipe = CogView3PlusPipeline.from_pretrained("THUDM/CogView3-Plus-3B", torch_dtype=torch.float16).to("cuda")
# Enable it to reduce GPU memory usage
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()
pipe.vae.enable_slicing()
pipe.vae.enable_tiling()
prompt = "A vibrant cherry red sports car sits proudly under the gleaming sun, its polished exterior smooth and flawless, casting a mirror-like reflection. The car features a low, aerodynamic body, angular headlights that gaze forward like predatory eyes, and a set of black, high-gloss racing rims that contrast starkly with the red. A subtle hint of chrome embellishes the grille and exhaust, while the tinted windows suggest a luxurious and private interior. The scene conveys a sense of speed and elegance, the car appearing as if it's about to burst into a sprint along a coastal road, with the ocean's azure waves crashing in the background."
image = pipe(
prompt=prompt,
guidance_scale=7.0,
num_images_per_prompt=1,
num_inference_steps=50,
width=1024,
height=1024,
).images[0]
image.save("cogview3.png")
```

### Inference Model (SAT)
Please check the [sat](sat/README.md) tutorial for step-by-step instructions on model inference.
### Open Source Plan
Since the project is in its early stages, we are working on the following:
+ [ ] Fine-tuning the SAT version of CogView3-Plus-3B, including SFT and LoRA fine-tuning
+ [X] Inference with the Diffusers library version of the CogView3-Plus-3B model
+ [ ] Fine-tuning the Diffusers library version of the CogView3-Plus-3B model
+ [ ] Related work for the CogView3-Plus-3B model, including ControlNet and other tasks.

repository: [CogView3: Finer and Faster Text-to-Image Generation via Relay Diffusion](https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.05121)
CogView3 is a novel text-to-image generation system using relay diffusion. It breaks down the process of generating
high-resolution images into multiple stages. Through the relay super-resolution process, Gaussian noise is added to
low-resolution generation results, and the diffusion process begins from these noisy images. Our results show that
CogView3 outperforms SDXL with a winning rate of 77.0%. Additionally, through progressive distillation of the diffusion
model, CogView3 can generate comparable results while reducing inference time to only 1/10th of SDXL's.
