TL; DR: A video VAE for latent generative video models, which is compatible with pretrained image and video models, e.g., SD 2.1 and SVD

News

• 2024-06-07 🤗 We updated the text-to-image inference code for SD2.1 + CV-VAE

• 2024-06-03 We have released the inference code and model weights of CV-VAE.

• 2024-05-30 We have updated the arXiv preprint.

Usage

Dependencies

• Python >= 3.8 (Recommend to use Anaconda)
• PyTorch >= 1.13.0
• NVIDIA GPU + CUDA
