# SDXL ControlNet: DWPose

Here are controlnet weights trained on stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0 with [DWPose](https://github.com/IDEA-Research/DWPose) conditioning.

### Using in 🧨 diffusers

First, install all the libraries:

```bash
pip install -q easy-dwpose transformers accelerate
pip install -q git+https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers
```

#### Example 1

To generate a realistic DJ with the following image driving the pose:

![Pose Image 1](./images/pose_image_1.png)

Run the following code:

```python
from diffusers import ControlNetModel, StableDiffusionXLControlNetPipeline
import torch
from diffusers.utils import load_image

from easy_dwpose import DWposeDetector


pose_image = load_image("./pose_image_1.png")

# Load detector
device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
dwpose = DWposeDetector(device=device)

# Compute DWpose conditioning image.
skeleton = dwpose(
	pose_image,
	detect_resolution=pose_image.width,
	output_type="pil",
	include_hands=True,
	include_face=True,
)

# Initialize ControlNet pipeline.
controlnet = ControlNetModel.from_pretrained(
	"dimitribarbot/controlnet-dwpose-sdxl-1.0",
	torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
pipe = StableDiffusionXLControlNetPipeline.from_pretrained(
	"stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
	controlnet=controlnet,
	torch_dtype=torch.float16,
	variant="fp16",
).to(device)

# Infer.
prompt = "DJ in a party, shallow depth of field, highly detailed, high budget, gorgeous"
negative_prompt = "bad quality, blur, anime, cartoon, graphic, text, painting, crayon, graphite, abstract, glitch, deformed, mutated, ugly, disfigured"
image = pipe(
	prompt,
	negative_prompt=negative_prompt,
	num_inference_steps=50,
	guidance_scale=5,
	image=skeleton,
	generator=torch.manual_seed(97),
).images[0]
```

Generated pose is:

![Pose 1](./images/dwpose_1.png)

Image generated by SDXL is:

![Pose 1](./images/dwpose_image_1.png)

#### Example 2

To generate a anime version of a woman sitting on a bench with the following image driving the pose:

![Pose Image 2](./images/pose_image_2.png)

Run the following code: 

```python
from diffusers import ControlNetModel, StableDiffusionXLControlNetPipeline
import torch
from diffusers.utils import load_image

from easy_dwpose import DWposeDetector


pose_image = load_image("./pose_image_2.png")

# Load detector
device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
dwpose = DWposeDetector(device=device)

# Compute DWpose conditioning image.
skeleton = dwpose(
	pose_image,
	detect_resolution=pose_image.width,
	output_type="pil",
	include_hands=True,
	include_face=True,
)

# Initialize ControlNet pipeline.
controlnet = ControlNetModel.from_pretrained(
	"dimitribarbot/controlnet-dwpose-sdxl-1.0",
	torch_dtype=torch.float16,
)
pipe = StableDiffusionXLControlNetPipeline.from_pretrained(
	"stabilityai/stable-diffusion-xl-base-1.0",
	controlnet=controlnet,
	torch_dtype=torch.float16,
	variant="fp16",
)
if torch.cuda.is_available():
	pipe.to(torch.device("cuda"))

# Infer.
prompt = "Anime girl sitting on a bench, highly detailed, noon, ambiant light"
negative_prompt = "bad quality, blur, anime, cartoon, graphic, text, painting, crayon, graphite, abstract, glitch, deformed, mutated, ugly, disfigured"
image = pipe(
	prompt,
	negative_prompt=negative_prompt,
	num_inference_steps=25,
	guidance_scale=18,
	image=skeleton,
	generator=torch.manual_seed(79),
).images[0]
```

Generated pose is:

![Pose 2](./images/dwpose_2.png)

Image generated by SDXL is:

![Pose 2](./images/dwpose_image_2.png)
