I found the little sketch-to-vector-variations part interesting and surprising- this is something that is solidly not done via a diffusion model unlike everything else shown. Although I note it says "We plan to build this into Firefly" implying that... this isn't something already finished.
- alexwebb2 4y agoI imagine this would use "in the style of a line drawing" prompts under the hood to produce line-esque raster images suitable for vectorization, with the resulting vectorized images being what's shown to the user.
- mk_stjames 4y agoThat was also my first instinct, but is vectorization from a line sketch really that smooth and reliable now, though? It has been some time since I've used modern tools, but last I tried any raster-to-vector on line drawings that weren't super basic, the results left a lot to be desired. Jittery, under- or over-fit, etc.
- Bjorkbat 4y agoI’m intrigued as well, but especially with regards to how it would perform in the real world given that I’ve also observed that diffusion models aren’t great with vectors. I suspect the example they used might have been cherry-picked
