:desktop_computer: Requirements

NVIDIA GPUs are required for this project. We conduct all the training on NVIDIA V100-32GiB (ShapeNet, FFHQ) and NVIDIA A100-80GiB (Objaverse). We have test the inference codes on NVIDIA V100. We recommend using anaconda to manage the python environments.

The environment can be created via conda env create -f environment_ln3diff.yml, and activated via conda activate ln3diff. If you want to reuse your own PyTorch environment, install the following packages in your environment:

# first, check whether you have installed pytorch (>=2.0) and xformer.
conda install -c conda-forge openexr-python git
pip install openexr lpips imageio kornia opencv-python tensorboard tqdm timm ffmpeg einops beartype imageio[ffmpeg] blobfile ninja lmdb webdataset opencv-python click torchdiffeq transformers
pip install git+https://github.com/nupurkmr9/vision-aided-gan.

Download Models

The pretrained stage-1 VAE and stage-2 LDM can be downloaded via OneDrive.

Put the downloaded checkpoints under checkpoints folder for inference. The checkpoints directory layout should be

Inference Commands

Note that to extract the mesh, 24GiB VRAM is required.

Stage-1 VAE 3D reconstruction

For (Objaverse) stage-1 VAE 3D reconstruction and extract VAE latents for diffusion learning, please run

bash shell_scripts/final_release/inference/sample_obajverse.sh

which shall give the following result:

The marching-cube extracted mesh can be visualized with Blender/MeshLab:

We upload the pre-extracted vae latents at here, which contains the correponding VAE latents (with shape 32x32x12) of 76K G-buffer Objaverse objects. Feel free to use them in your own task.

For more G-buffer Objaverse examples, download the demo data.

Stage-2 Text-to-3D

We train 3D latent diffusion model on top of the stage-1 extracted latents. For the following bash inference file, to extract mesh from the generated tri-plane, set --export_mesh True. To change the text prompt, set the prompt variable. For unconditional sampling, set the cfg guidance unconditional_guidance_scale=0. Feel free to tune the cfg guidance scale to trade off diversity and fidelity.

Note that the diffusion sampling batch size is set to 4, which costs around 16GiB VRAM. The mesh extraction of a single instance costs 24GiB VRAM.

For text-to-3D on Objaverse, run

bash shell_scripts/final_release/inference/sample_obajverse.sh

For text-to-3D on ShapeNet, run one of the following commands (which conducts T23D on car, chair and plane.):

bash shell_scripts/final_release/inference/sample_shapenet_car_t23d.sh

bash shell_scripts/final_release/inference/sample_shapenet_chair_t23d.sh

bash shell_scripts/final_release/inference/sample_shapenet_plane_t23d.sh

For text-to-3D on FFHQ, run

bash shell_scripts/final_release/inference/sample_ffhq_t23d.sh

:running_woman: Training

Dataset

For Objaverse, we use the rendering provided by G-buffer Objaverse. A demo subset for stage-1 VAE reconstruction can be downloaded from here. Note that for Objaverse training, we pre-process the raw data into wds-dataset shards for fast and flexible loading. The sample shard data can be found in here.

For ShapeNet, we render our own data with foreground mask for training, which can be downloaded from here. For training, we convert the raw data to LMDB for faster data loading. The pre-processed LMDB file can be downloaded from here.

For FFHQ, we use the pre-processed dataset from EG3D and compress it into LMDB, which can also be found in the onedrive link above.

Training Commands

Coming soon.
