AMD Nitro-T

Introduction

Nitro-T is a family of text-to-image diffusion models focused on highly efficient training. Our models achieve competitive scores on image generation benchmarks compared to previous models focused on efficient training while requiring less than 1 day of training from scratch on 32 AMD Instinct™ MI300X GPUs. The release consists of:

Nitro-T-0.6B: a 512px DiT-based model
Nitro-T-1.2B: a 1024px MMDiT-based model

⚡️ Open-source code! Our GitHub provides training and data preparation scripts to reproduce our results. We hope this codebase for efficient diffusion model training enables researchers to iterate faster on ideas and lowers the barrier for independent developers to build custom models.

📝 Read our technical blog post for more details on the techniques we used to achieve fast training and for results and evaluations.

Details

Model architecture: Nitro-T-1.2B is a text-to-image Multimodal Diffusion Transformer (MMDiT) that resembles the architecture of Stable Diffusion 3. It uses the latent space of Deep Compression Autoencoder (DC-AE) and uses a Llama 3.2 1B model for text conditioning. Additionally, several techniques were used to reduce training time. See our technical blog post for more details.
Dataset: The Nitro-T models were trained on a dataset of ~35M images consisting of both real and synthetic data sources that are openly available on the internet. See our GitHub repo for data processing scripts.
Training cost: Nitro-T-1.2B requires less than 1 day of training from scratch on 32 AMD Instinct™ MI300X GPUs.

Quickstart

You must use diffusers>=0.34 in order to load the model from the Huggingface hub.

python

import torch
from diffusers import DiffusionPipeline
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM

torch.set_grad_enabled(False)

device = torch.device('cuda:0')
dtype = torch.bfloat16
resolution = 1024
MODEL_NAME = "amd/Nitro-T-1.2B"

text_encoder = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("meta-llama/Llama-3.2-1B", torch_dtype=dtype)
pipe = DiffusionPipeline.from_pretrained(
    MODEL_NAME,
    text_encoder=text_encoder,
    torch_dtype=dtype, 
    trust_remote_code=True,
)
pipe.to(device)

image = pipe(
    prompt="The image is a close-up portrait of a scientist in a modern laboratory. He has short, neatly styled black hair and wears thin, stylish eyeglasses. The lighting is soft and warm, highlighting his facial features against a backdrop of lab equipment and glowing screens.",
    height=resolution, width=resolution,
    num_inference_steps=20,
    guidance_scale=4.0,
).images[0]

image.save("output.png")
