Welcome to the world of MistoLine, a versatile SDXL-ControlNet model designed specifically for adaptable line art conditioning. Whether you are an artist looking to refine your sketches, or a developer interested in exploring advanced image generation, this guide will walk you through the essentials of using MistoLine effectively.
What is MistoLine?
MistoLine is an innovative model that can intelligently interpret any kind of line art input. With MistoLine, you can achieve high-quality image outputs (with a short side greater than 1024px) from your user-provided line art, which can include:
- Hand-drawn sketches
- ControlNet line preprocessors
- Model-generated outlines
This model is powered by a novel line preprocessing algorithm known as Anyline, which improves detail restoration, prompt alignment, and stability.
How Does MistoLine Work?
Think of MistoLine as a skilled chef in a kitchen. Just as a chef takes various ingredients (line art) and expertly combines them to create a sumptuous dish (high-quality image), MistoLine processes different kinds of line inputs to produce stunning visual outputs, all while maintaining the essence of the original art style. Each ingredient must be carefully selected and combined in the right proportions to achieve delicious results. Here, the ingredients are your sketches and outlines, and the chef is the advanced neural network of MistoLine!
Getting Started with MistoLine
Follow these steps to integrate MistoLine into your projects:
1. Install Necessary Libraries
pip install accelerate transformers safetensors opencv-python diffusers
2. Initialize the MistoLine Model in Your Code
from diffusers import ControlNetModel, StableDiffusionXLControlNetPipeline, AutoencoderKL
from diffusers.utils import load_image
from PIL import Image
import torch
import numpy as np
import cv2
# Load and prepare image and model
prompt = "Aerial view, a futuristic research complex in a bright foggy jungle, hard lighting"
negative_prompt = "low quality, bad quality, sketches"
image = load_image("https:huggingface.codatasetshf-internal-testingdiffusers-imagesresolvemainsd_controlnethf-logo.png")
# ControlNet setup
controlnet_conditioning_scale = 0.5
controlnet = ControlNetModel.from_pretrained("TheMistoAIMistoLine", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
vae = AutoencoderKL.from_pretrained("madebyollinsdxl-vae-fp16-fix", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
# Pipeline setup
pipe = StableDiffusionXLControlNetPipeline.from_pretrained(
"stabilityaistable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
controlnet=controlnet,
vae=vae,
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
pipe.enable_model_cpu_offload()
# Process image
image_array = np.array(image)
image_array = cv2.Canny(image_array, 100, 200)
image_array = image_array[:, :, None]
image_array = np.concatenate([image_array, image_array, image_array], axis=2)
image = Image.fromarray(image_array)
images = pipe(prompt, negative_prompt=negative_prompt, image=image, controlnet_conditioning_scale=controlnet_conditioning_scale).images
images[0].save("hug_lab.png")
