Ilustrious-Nova-V3.6-PRO (Final PRO Edition)
V3.6 PRO is the definitive anatomy fix version. It utilizes high-precision FP32 filtering and DARE-style rescaling to transplant IllumiYume's superior anatomy into NoobAI's pristine art style without the blurring issues common in standard merges.
🔧 Technical Details (The "Secret Sauce")
1. High Precision Math (FP32)
Unlike standard mergers that operate in FP16, this model upcasted all tensors to Float32 before calculating deltas. This prevents "rounding noise" (micro-grain) from accumulating in the final image.
2. Top-K Density Filtering
Instead of a static threshold, we used dynamic quantile filtering:
- Input Blocks: Retained 35% of structural changes.
- Middle Block: Retained 25% (Strict anatomy focus).
- Output Blocks: Retained only 15% (Minimal style impact).
This ensures that only actual skeletal/structural data is moved, discarding the random noise that usually deforms fingers.
3. DARE Rescaling (Anti-Blur)
After injection, every modified layer was mathematically rescaled to match the Standard Deviation of the original NoobAI layer. This restores contrast and sharpness immediately, eliminating the "washed out" look of mixed models.
4. VAE Integrity
The VAE is locked to NoobAI original. No merging happened on the VAE to prevent latent space glitches.
