Models

For general use, get pruned and EMA models (the smaller .ckpt files) as they contain only the data needed for inference. Models that come with custom VAEs, fix issues like colour desaturation and faces. [Read More] (What is a VAE?) Without EMA (exponential moving average) the model tends to overfit during the last part of generation. [src]

• If you plan on training/extending the models, get the other (larger) none pruned versions (and make sure disable the EMA weights which is included in it). [src]
• Pruning a model makes it smaller by taking the values close to zero turning them zero to reduce the connections. [src]
