Show 1 Interpolation

🚀 Show-1 Interpolation

Pixel-based VDMs can generate motion accurately aligned with the textual prompt. However, they usually incur high computational costs in terms of time and GPU memory, especially when generating high-resolution videos. Latent-based VDMs are more resource-efficient as they operate in a reduced-dimension latent space. Nevertheless, it is difficult for such a small latent space (e.g., 64×40 for 256×160 videos) to cover the rich and necessary visual semantic details described by the textual prompt.

To combine the strengths and mitigate the weaknesses of pixel-based and latent-based VDMs, we introduce Show-1, an efficient text-to-video model that generates videos with both good video-text alignment and high visual quality.

📚 Documentation

Model Details

This is the interpolation model of Show-1 that upsamples videos from 2fps to 7.5fps. The model is finetuned from showlab/show-1-base on the WebVid-10M dataset.

🚀 Quick Start

Installation

Clone the GitHub repository and install the requirements:

git clone https://github.com/showlab/Show-1.git
pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Run the following command to generate a video from a text prompt. By default, this will automatically download all the model weights from huggingface.

python run_inference.py

You can also download the weights manually and change the pretrained_model_path in run_inference.py to run the inference.

git lfs install
