# SparseControlNetModel

SparseControlNetModel is an implementation of ControlNet for [AnimateDiff](https://huggingface.co/papers/2307.04725).

ControlNet was introduced in [Adding Conditional Control to Text-to-Image Diffusion Models](https://huggingface.co/papers/2302.05543) by Lvmin Zhang, Anyi Rao, and Maneesh Agrawala.

The SparseCtrl version of ControlNet was introduced in [SparseCtrl: Adding Sparse Controls to Text-to-Video Diffusion Models](https://huggingface.co/papers/2311.16933) for achieving controlled generation in text-to-video diffusion models by Yuwei Guo, Ceyuan Yang, Anyi Rao, Maneesh Agrawala, Dahua Lin, and Bo Dai.

The abstract from the paper is:

*The development of text-to-video (T2V), i.e., generating videos with a given text prompt, has been significantly advanced in recent years. However, relying solely on text prompts often results in ambiguous frame composition due to spatial uncertainty. The research community thus leverages the dense structure signals, e.g., per-frame depth/edge sequences, to enhance controllability, whose collection accordingly increases the burden of inference. In this work, we present SparseCtrl to enable flexible structure control with temporally sparse signals, requiring only one or a few inputs, as shown in Figure 1. It incorporates an additional condition encoder to process these sparse signals while leaving the pre-trained T2V model untouched. The proposed approach is compatible with various modalities, including sketches, depth maps, and RGB images, providing more practical control for video generation and promoting applications such as storyboarding, depth rendering, keyframe animation, and interpolation. Extensive experiments demonstrate the generalization of SparseCtrl on both original and personalized T2V generators. Codes and models will be publicly available at [this https URL](https://guoyww.github.io/projects/SparseCtrl).*

#### from_unet[[diffusers.SparseControlNetModel.from_unet]]

[Source](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/main/src/diffusers/models/controlnets/controlnet_sparsectrl.py#L387)

Instantiate a [SparseControlNetModel](/docs/diffusers/main/en/api/models/controlnet_sparsectrl#diffusers.SparseControlNetModel) from [UNet2DConditionModel](/docs/diffusers/main/en/api/models/unet2d-cond#diffusers.UNet2DConditionModel).

**Parameters:**

unet (`UNet2DConditionModel`) : The UNet model weights to copy to the [SparseControlNetModel](/docs/diffusers/main/en/api/models/controlnet_sparsectrl#diffusers.SparseControlNetModel). All configuration options are also copied where applicable.
#### set_attention_slice[[diffusers.SparseControlNetModel.set_attention_slice]]

[Source](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/main/src/diffusers/models/controlnets/controlnet_sparsectrl.py#L528)

Enable sliced attention computation.

When this option is enabled, the attention module splits the input tensor in slices to compute attention in
several steps. This is useful for saving some memory in exchange for a small decrease in speed.

**Parameters:**

slice_size (`str` or `int` or `list(int)`, *optional*, defaults to `"auto"`) : When `"auto"`, input to the attention heads is halved, so attention is computed in two steps. If `"max"`, maximum amount of memory is saved by running only one slice at a time. If a number is provided, uses as many slices as `attention_head_dim // slice_size`. In this case, `attention_head_dim` must be a multiple of `slice_size`.
#### set_attn_processor[[diffusers.SparseControlNetModel.set_attn_processor]]

[Source](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/main/src/diffusers/models/controlnets/controlnet_sparsectrl.py#L477)

Sets the attention processor to use to compute attention.

**Parameters:**

processor (`dict` of `AttentionProcessor` or only `AttentionProcessor`) : The instantiated processor class or a dictionary of processor classes that will be set as the processor for **all** `Attention` layers.  If `processor` is a dict, the key needs to define the path to the corresponding cross attention processor. This is strongly recommended when setting trainable attention processors.

[Source](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/main/src/diffusers/models/controlnets/controlnet_sparsectrl.py#L512)

Disables custom attention processors and sets the default attention implementation.
