The Args object would crap out when trying to retrieve metadata from
an image file that did not contain InvokeAI-generated metadata, such
as a JPG. This corrects that and returns dummy values (seed of zero,
prompt of '') to avoid downstream breakage.
The k_samplers come with a "karras" noise schedule which performs
very well at low step counts but becomes noisy at higher ones.
This commit introduces a threshold (currently 30 steps) at which the
k samplers will switch over from using karras to the older model
noise schedule.
- This sets a step switchover point at which the k-samplers stop using the
Karras noise schedule and start using the LatentDiffusion noise schedule.
The advantage of this is that the Karras schedule produces excellent
results at low step counts but starts to become unstable at high
steps.
- A new command argument --karras_max, lets the user set where the
switchover occurs. Default is 29 steps (1-29 steps Karras),
(30 or greater LDM)
- Tildebyte, sorry to do a fast forward three-way merge for this
but rebasing was just too painful due to extensive recent
changes to the diffuser code.
This was a difficult merge because both PR #1108 and #1243 made
changes to obscure parts of the diffusion code.
- prompt weighting, merging and cross-attention working
- cross-attention does not work with runwayML inpainting
model, but weighting and merging are tested and working
- CLI command parsing code rewritten in order to get embedded
quotes right
- --hires now works with runwayML inpainting
- --embiggen does not work with runwayML and will give an error
- Added an --invert option to invert masks applied to inpainting
- Updated documentation
