The thing about textual inversions is that they create embeddings that are cross combatable with the base models. A textual inversion trained with SD 1.5 will work with all 1.5 based models, and here is the kicker, you can combine them without having to do any model merging. That is HUGE.
Yes, combining two, three or more Dreambooth models is possible, but it takes time and generates yet another 2GB+ model that you need to save somewhere. Whilst textual inversions can be used flexibly within the prompts in any combination, including weighting them, using as negative prompts, all on the fly with no extra file management However, textual inversion cannot learn to output things that the base model is not able to do at all. So depending on the base model, it may not be possible to train a textual inversion for a specific concept.
Much appreciated, having someone clever distil all of this dense information down and explain it succinctly and with so much enthusiasm is so refreshing!
i'm a total beginner to AI, and i suck at math, but you somehow managed to clear a shit ton of confusion. I was hooked on Dreambooth tutorials and trust me, you don't want that. I literally thought i was not going to be able to get started simply because of the massive resources it required. Trust me, you are really good at explaning things :) Really appreaciate the help
Hey Koiboi. Great video. When you made this video, as you said yourself, LoRA was still very new and the stats are probably not accurate. Now that a good amount of time has passed, I would love to watch an updated analysis video on the effectiveness of LoRA compared to Dreambooth and Textual Inversion. Either way, this is the most informative video I've watched so far comparing these fine-tuning models. Liked and subbed 👍.
Textual inversion is far better on 2.1 than 1.5, and i think that's why they don't get the same love dreambooth receives. You can also speed up textual inversion training if you spend a few minutes getting the initializing text right so the vectors start in relatively close proximity to their final resting place. The best part imo, is you can combine many embeddings together, something which dreamtbooth doesn't really allow.
Ironically I haven't been able to run dreambooth yet,I switched to linux for AI... something broken with PyTorch2.0 and Cuda11.7 only thing affected is dreambooth training. Turn on gradient checkpoint and it cant train, turn it off and I cant make it to the first epoch without running out of 24GB of vram? I hope this gets fixed soon.
LORA works only with an extension, and many people don't know how to use it yet, hence lower ratings. Great video btw! Visual comparision would have been great as well! As far as I can remember, there was one in LORA blogpost, showing how textual inversion may be less flexible than dreambooth or lora, and the latter two were showing comparatively similar results.
Auto added compatibility now! But it was only added recently. (I still use the extension, I find the drop-down much easier to use than how auto implemented it, plus it gives you the ability to tweak the weight of both U-Net and the Text Encoder -- super cool!)
I've been messing with Loras and they seem to work really well. You can also do a good amount of mix and matching with loras whereas a full model checkpoint only allows you to use that one model at a time. if I had a fruits lora and a vegetables lora, then I could just turn them both on to get fruits and vegies in my random prompt that doesn't ask for fruits or vegies. If I later just want fruit then I could just remove the vegies lora. I think loras are going to be big going forward, most people just don't know about them yet.
I get the feeling that Textual Inversion is the go-to for when you have a new idea you want to teach the model (like a specific character or subject), and Lora is great for when you have a concept you don't want to stop and explain to the model, or may have difficulty doing so. They're very similar things, but not quite the same. For example; loras are great for mimicking a specific art style, because instead of having to describe "I want a painted animation style like this specific style, but with eyes drawn just so", you can train a lora and then just say "" at the end of your prompt, and since it isn't actually part of the prompt, this clears up tokens for describing the actual thing you want depicted in that style.
@@treyslider6954 And also, as described in the Automatic1111 docs, Textual Inversion can't teach COMPLETELY new concepts. The example they gave is that if you trained a model that only knew how to make apples on images of bananas, it wouldn't learn what a banana is, it would just make long yellow apples (in the best-case scenario). Because it's not actually changing model weights, it's better for teaching a style than a new subject, because unless the subject is very similar to something it's seen, it can't learn it. LoRAs can teach a model something it's never seen before, because they are directly inserting weights into the model, meaning it's actually modifying the model and not the input going into it. Basically, Textual Inversion for simple styles, LoRA for anything complicated.
Great explanation! I've learned more about how AI art works from this video alone than all my previous watched videos combined. Everyone tends to say how to configure things without explaining how it works.
Really appreciate this, so many videos showing how to do this stuff, but not how it works, and specially not how it works dumbed down to a level I can understand. Very cool, thankyou

Thanks a ton for this breakdown, I've been struggling with this same question for a few weeks now. I had already come to a similar conclusion myself, but this was very validating. Dreambooth is preferred, but the models sizes make it so cumbersome and challenging to test different versions. With textual inversion, the file sizes are insignificant, and you can stack them on top of each other, making them very flexible. I haven't actually evaluated embeddedings (textual inversion) yet for quality because the animation notebook I use doesn't support them, but the developer just made it compatible, so I'm looking forward to testing it out more.
I love it, love your promises on what we are going to get from your video at the very starting few seconds of the video itself, keep it going man, love your channel and your energy.
the conclusion is simple. use kohya ss to extract the lora deltas from checkpoints ..... thus you end up with 1 base model and plenty of lora files that are few MB in size
Рік тому
Thank You a lot. This has been a really good explanation that I felt missing.
really great video! finally understand the differences. just the conclusion is already out of date, since we're moving so incredibly fast. lora, is the most popular format on civitai now. understandable, since training is the quickest, even though ti's end-result is much smaller.
I greatly appreciate this video sir! It is really helpful for me to have context of how things actually work behind the scenes to make mental connections and improve how I interact with the external program.
Thank you for model explanation. Really loved your content so far. At the end of civitai comparison, I’m curious if we split data to use cases, object embedding vs style embedding would have different performance/preference.
Awesome. As someone who was too lazy to look up the papers, and too stupid to understand them, I truly appreciate your video. I actually understood it.
This is the best video. You mentally collapsed at the end and I could relate so much hahah. Textual inverse IS THE COOLEST!...Now excuse me while I use some dreambooth.
Amazing video with the explanation on the heuristics. Have you updated your excel with the usage now after 4 months and would you change the opinion based on your quantitative data from civitai
That is the type of quality content that I'm digging for. I want to understand Stable Diffusion and everything related. But my attention span/knowledge about programming is not enough that I can just read papers about it. So I need videos, with visuals, and easy explainations. And your video was Perfect. Liked + Subscribed :)
That was absolutely awesome. Thanks for that, I wish you'd do a deep dive tutorial of the most recent update of dreambooth in automatic 1111, some settings seems to have major impact in the training while not being very much covered. (Gradient anyone? XD)
i don't usually comment on videos, but you dear sir deserve an applause for the level of research that you have achieved. Not only that, but you explained so that even a cat would understand it.
What I was looking for in that video was the comparison of usability in different scenarios. Which model is good for faces which one for style transfer etc. I'm missing that, other than that quite comprehensive comparison. Good job!
I've used all these methods besides dreambooth. And from my experience on training a specific person LORA has gave me the best results and it's also the quickest of the methods i've tried as well which is a bonus. You can also use them on any model and mix them together ect. The only problem i've had is using it to produce two different people at the same time. As you can't go over a total weight of 1.0 but more realistically like 0.8 and the more you use together the lower the weight you have to use for each. But that can be solved using inpainting or probably other methods as well.
Great info! And coincides with what I learned on Computerphile's channel. Slowly but surely my mind is able to wrap around with what we're dealing with.
Great video! Personally, I like textual inversion and feel that - ultimately - that's where most will end up gravitating to for training. HOWEVER, I really wish someone would create clear instructions on image captioning best practices when preparing the datasets for training images ... HINT HINT!
This video is incredibly helpful. I'm probably going to use either LoRA or Dreambooth, as Textual Inversion can't teach brand new subjects as well as you can by directly inserting or modifying weights in the model.
from what I gather at this point (may be wrong, don't know the exact details) this is how i view the various techniques: dreambooth: easy to use and see clear results due to typical aggressive training settings easy to overtrain, turning model into 1 trick pony can contaminate rest of model if overtrained merge can transfer contamination probably still good for merging overall textual inversion: works with several models with same base model doesn't learn anything cannot be included in a merge 'tricking' a model to output a result based on what it knows without understanding 'plug in' solution for specific objects/concepts hypernetworks: does not need mixing into model before use, unlike lora can be swapped and scaled on the fly in webui (req same base model) cannot be included in a merge LoRA: small file size but needs to be merged into another model (with same base) probably best for merging without affecting model broadly (no idea how lora merging affects actual model, are new nodes inserted?) finetuning: keep model stable while learning new concepts probably the most solid/slow/steady please feel free to add to list to or correct me
yeah, sounds very accurate to me The only thing I would mention is that I think that LoRA merging and hypernetwork merging can be done in exactly the same way, it's just that at the moment AUTOMATIC1111 does them differently
@@lewingtonn that would make sense, if they both operate on those intermediary nodes it raises questions of how well LoRA/hypernetworks merge when several models are merged and how well they handle it seem the fewer subnodes are maybe more specialized in what they do to the underlying model. Maybe it just magically works out xD guess it would be similar to merging 2 hypernetworks and run the merged on a model
could you please do a part 2 where you - explain aesthetic gradients for educational purposes, and maybe provide data on user feedback like you did at the end for the others. - explain lycoris, which from what i understand is lora + 4 random good ideas, but id love to see someone on your level break it down a bit better. - give us updated data on the other forms now that more feedback is available (you mentioned not having a big enough sample size to judge the newest tech). that would be insanely helpful. thanks!
I just started training Lora in the dreambooth extension in Automatic1111 and the files it's outputting for me for SD2.1 are about 5 MB pt files, nowhere near what you said Lora sizes should be.
"SKS" is a type of rifle. The point of Dreambooth is to overwrite what the model knows about a given word, either partially or completely. You can add new dog breeds to the model by training pictures of them under the generic class "dog" without destroying all the other kinds of dogs the model knows if you only train a little bit. Or you can make every dog you produce be your dog if you overtraining it. The point of choosing "sks" is not to use a word the model doesn't know. The point is to use a word you don't care if you overwrite completely, and then training it enough so that it works in your desired prompt. You could train "a photo of a dog person" to be pictures of you if you train it long enough. You're much better off training it to use a word with some meaning to you. Like a misspelling of a name, or by using "l33t $p34k" to spell it, or something else that's not real, yet has meaning to you. That way you can have different strings of text for different subjects of styles and put them all in the *same* model. If you always use "sks" or "ohwx", then you need en entire checkpoint per subject, and that's a bad idea.
The thing about textual inversions is that they create embeddings that are cross combatable with the base models. A textual inversion trained with SD 1.5 will work with all 1.5 based models, and here is the kicker, you can combine them without having to do any model merging. That is HUGE.
yeah, the flexibility of textual inversion is a big factor, also it's really cool conceptually!!

Yes, combining two, three or more Dreambooth models is possible, but it takes time and generates yet another 2GB+ model that you need to save somewhere.

Great video, really helped me understand this
Very clear explanation, thank you!
from what I gather at this point (may be wrong, don't know the exact details) this is how i view the various techniques:
dreambooth:
easy to use and see clear results due to typical aggressive training settings
easy to overtrain, turning model into 1 trick pony
can contaminate rest of model if overtrained
merge can transfer contamination
probably still good for merging overall
textual inversion:
works with several models with same base
model doesn't learn anything
cannot be included in a merge
'tricking' a model to output a result based on what it knows without understanding
'plug in' solution for specific objects/concepts
hypernetworks:
does not need mixing into model before use, unlike lora
can be swapped and scaled on the fly in webui (req same base model)
cannot be included in a merge
LoRA:
small file size but needs to be merged into another model (with same base)
probably best for merging without affecting model broadly
(no idea how lora merging affects actual model, are new nodes inserted?)
finetuning:
keep model stable while learning new concepts
probably the most solid/slow/steady
please feel free to add to list to or correct me
yeah, sounds very accurate to me
The only thing I would mention is that I think that LoRA merging and hypernetwork merging can be done in exactly the same way, it's just that at the moment AUTOMATIC1111 does them differently

That way you can have different strings of text for different subjects of styles and put them all in the *same* model. If you always use "sks" or "ohwx", then you need en entire checkpoint per subject, and that's a bad idea.
That's so much work! Thank you man
Thank you, sir, for this explanation!
thank you for the great explanation!
Thank you. I finnaly undestand them :)
lora is my go-to. Being able to hotswap and combine styles/likeness/scenes on the fly and being able to adjust weights is SO powerful.
