Arguments to put in network_args for kohya sd scripts
Algo
- Set with
algo=ALGO_NAME - Check List of Implemented Algorithms for algorithms to use
Preset
- Set with
preset=PRESET/CONFIG_FILE - Pre-implemented:
full(default),attn-mlp,attn-onlyetc. - Valid for all but (IA)^3
- Use
preset=xxx.tomlto choose config file (for LyCORIS module settings) - More info in Preset
Dimension
- Dimension of the linear layers is set with the script argument
network_dim - Dimension of the convolutional layers is set with
conv_dim=INT - Valid for all but (IA)^3 and native fine-tuning
- For LoKr, setting dimension to sufficiently large value (>10240/2) prevents the second block from being further decomposed
Alpha
- Alpha of the linear layers is set with the script argument
network_alpha - Alpha of the convolutional layers is set with
conv_alpha=FLOAT - Valid for all but (IA)^3 and native fine-tuning, ignored by full dimension LoKr as well
- Merge ratio is alpha/dimension, check Appendix B.1 of our paper for relation between alpha and learning rate / initialization
Dropouts
- Set with
dropout=FLOAT,rank_dropout=FLOAT,module_dropout=FLOAT - Set the dropout rate, the types of dropout that are valid could vary from method to method
Factor
- Set with
factor=INT - Valid for LoKr
- Use
-1to get the smallest decomposition
Decompose both
- Enabled with
decompose_both=True - Valid for LoKr
- Perform LoRA decomposition of both matrices resulting from LoKr decomposition (by default only the larger matrix is decomposed)
Block Size
- Set with
block_size=INT - Valid for DyLoRA
- Set the "unit" of DyLoRA (i.e. how many rows / columns to update each time)
Tucker Decomposition
- Enabled with
use_tucker=True - Valid for all but (IA)^3 and native fine-tuning
- It was given the wrong name
use_cp=in older version
Scalar
- Enabled with
use_scalar=True - Valid for LoRA, LoHa, and LoKr.
- Train an additional scalar in front of the weight difference
- Use a different weight initialization strategy
Weight Decompose
- Enabled with
dora_wd=True - Valid for LoRA, LoHa, and LoKr
- Enable the DoRA method for these algorithms.
- Will force
bypass_mode=False
Bypass Mode
- Enabled with
bypass_mode=True - Valid for LoRA, LoHa, LoKr
- Use instead of
- Designed for bnb 8bit/4bit linear layer. (QLyCORIS)
Normalization Layers
- Enabled with
train_norm=True - Valid for all but (IA)^3
Rescaled OFT
- Enabled with
rescaled=True - Valid for Diag-OFT
Constrained OFT
- Enabled with
constraint=FLOAT - Valid for Diag-OFT
Singular Vector Type (T-LoRA)
- Set with
sig_type=STRING - Valid for T-LoRA
- Options:
principal(default),last,middle - Controls which singular vectors from SVD are used for initialization:
principal: Top-k singular vectors (largest singular values)last: Bottom-k singular vectors (smallest singular values)middle: Middle-k singular vectors
Data-Dependent Initialization (T-LoRA)
- Enabled with
use_data_init=True(default) - Valid for T-LoRA
- When True, performs SVD on the original layer weights
- When False, performs SVD on a random matrix (data-independent)
Timestep Mask Group (T-LoRA)
- Set with
mask_group_id=INT - Valid for T-LoRA
- Default: 0
- For multi-network scenarios, allows different networks to use different timestep masks
