Model overview

hyper-flux-8step is a text-to-image AI model developed by ByteDance. It is a variant of the ByteDance/Hyper-SD FLUX.1-dev model, which is a diffusion-based model trained to generate high-quality images from textual descriptions. The hyper-flux-8step version uses an 8-step inference process, compared to the 16-step process of the original Hyper FLUX model. This makes it faster to run while still producing compelling images.

The model is similar to other AI text-to-image models like sdxl-lightning-4step and hyper-flux-16step, all of which are developed by ByteDance. These models offer varying trade-offs between speed, quality, and resource requirements.

Model inputs and outputs

The hyper-flux-8step model takes a text prompt as input and generates one or more corresponding images as output. The input prompt can describe a wide variety of subjects, scenes, and styles, and the model will attempt to create visuals that match the description.

Inputs

• Prompt: A text description of the image you want the model to generate.
• Seed: A random seed value to ensure reproducible generation.
• Width/Height: The desired width and height of the generated image, if using a custom aspect ratio.
• Num Outputs: The number of images to generate (up to 4).
• Aspect Ratio: The aspect ratio of the generated image, such as 1:1 or custom.
• Output Format: The file format for the generated images, such as WEBP or PNG.
• Guidance Scale: A parameter that controls the strength of the text-to-image guidance.
• Num Inference Steps: The number of steps to use in the diffusion process (8 in this case).
• Disable Safety Checker: An option to disable the model's safety checks for inappropriate content.

Outputs

• One or more image files in the requested format, corresponding to the provided prompt.
