Issues:Some concept bleeding and instability is noticeable when using short prompts, especially tag-only prompts.Longer tag strings and natural language prompts describing the image in detail should help with this.This reflects how the model was trained with a combination of natural language and tags.Recognitions<ul><li>Thanks to <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://civarchive.com/user/circlestone_labs">CircleStone Labs</a> for the Anima base models.</li><li>Thanks to tdrussell of CircleStone Labs for the <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://github.com/tdrussell/diffusion-pipe">diffusion-pipe</a> trainer.</li><li>Thanks to bluvoll for support using their fork of diffusion-pipe.</li><li>Thanks to narugo1992 and the deepghs team for open-sourcing various training sets, image processing tools, and models.</li></ul>LicenseThis model is released under the same license as the base model.See the base model for details of the <a target="_blank" rel="ugc" href="https://huggingface.co/circlestone-labs/Anima/blob/main/LICENSE.md">CircleStone Labs Non-Commercial License.</a> Built on NVIDIA Cosmos
