This AI Paper Introduces LCM-LoRA: Revolutionizing Text-to-Image Generative Tasks with Advanced Latent Consistency Models and LoRA Distillation

How can Latent Consistency Models (LCMs) enhance the efficiency of text-to-image generation tasks? This paper presents an advancement in LCMs, distilled from pre-trained latent diffusion models (LDMs), requiring only approximately 32 A100 GPU hours for training. The innovation lies in applying LoRA distillation to models like Stable-Diffusion V1.5, SSD-1B, and SDXL, broadening the applicability of LCMs to larger models while reducing memory usage and improving image quality. A key breakthrough is the creation of LCM-LoRA, a universal acceleration module derived …
