[Dreambooth] HELP! Dreambooth multi-subjects training makes the results quality worse?

Overview

Hi I finetuned from stable diffusion v1.5 with dreambooth method, it worked fine when I trained single subject: car/dog. But the results quality decreased when I trained both categories at the same time with script: train_multi_subject_dreambooth.py

The results of multi-subjects experiment get worse quality and seem to be fake images.

Questions

1. From the perspective of principle, does dreambooth support multi-subjects training?

2. Are there any successful cases of multi-subjects training with train_multi_subject_dreambooth.py. What should I pay attention to during the multi-subjects training?

3. In my experiment, what might be the reason for the bad results? Is this result due to SR not being finetuned?

2

Hey @lluu that script isn’t officially supported because we haven’t done much work on multi subject dreambooth and bad quality is to be expected

3

Hi @williamberman. So dreambooth may not support multi-subject training in principle? Is it because there are no images of two subjects appearing simultaneously during training?

4

It’s just not a well explored topic. Unfortunately I don’t have any insight on why :slight_smile:

Okay. Thanks a lot ! :slightly_smiling_face:

Hello @lluu,

according to this in-depth analysis, DreamBooth works best when the text encoder is trained as well. This is even more important when training on multiple subjects, as it helps the model differentiate between your subjects and their associated tokens.

Try it with the --train_text_encoder flag and see if it helps.

@lluu did you tried with text encoder , please let me how are the results, If you has any other way to train multiple subjects using dreambooth , Please share here

Thank you
