SDXL-Lightning: Progressive Adversarial Diffusion Distillation

21 Feb 2024  ·  Shanchuan Lin, Anran Wang, Xiao Yang ·

We propose a diffusion distillation method that achieves new state-of-the-art in one-step/few-step 1024px text-to-image generation based on SDXL. Our method combines progressive and adversarial distillation to achieve a balance between quality and mode coverage. In this paper, we discuss the theoretical analysis, discriminator design, model formulation, and training techniques. We open-source our distilled SDXL-Lightning models both as LoRA and full UNet weights.
