FLUX.1: 12B Parameter Rectified Flow Transformer for High-Fidelity Image Generation
Architected FLUX.1, an open-weights 12B parameter multimodal diffusion transformer utilizing rectified flow matching, achieving unmatched prompt adherence, typography generation, and photographic realism.
12B model footprint requires 24GB+ VRAM or 8-bit/4-bit quantization (NF4) for local inference on consumer hardware.
High-Resolution Image Synthesis with Latent Diffusion Models (Stable Diffusion)
Lead author of the landmark CVPR 2022 paper introducing Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs), shifting diffusion training from raw pixel space into a compressed latent perceptual space, unlocking consumer GPU diffusion synthesis.
Fine spatial details (e.g., distant human hands or miniature typography) can suffer perceptual compression loss in the VAE latent space.
