This repository has the official code for 'FashionFlow: Leveraging Diffusion Models for Dynamic Fashion Video Synthesis from Static Imagery'. We have included the pre-trained checkpoint, dataset and results.
Abstract: Our study introduces a new image-to-video generator called FashionFlow to generate fashion videos. By utilising a diffusion model, we are able to create short videos from still fashion images. Our approach involves developing and connecting relevant components with the diffusion model, which results in the creation of high-fidelity videos that are aligned with the conditional image. The components include the use of pseudo-3D convolutional layers to generate videos efficiently. VAE and CLIP encoders capture vital characteristics from still images to condition the diffusion model at a global level. Our research demonstrates a successful synthesis of fashion videos featuring models posing from various angles, showcasing the fit and appearance of the garment. Our findings hold great promise for improving and enhancing the shopping experience for the online fashion industry.

The model was developed using PyTorch and loads pretrained weights for VAE and CLIP. The latent diffusion model consists of a 1D convolutional layer stacked against a 2D convolutional layer (forming a pseudo 3D convolution) and includes attention layers. See the model_structure.txt file to see the exact layers of our LDM.

[Pre-trained checkpoints]
Extract the files and place them in the checkpoint directory
To run the inference of our model, execute python inference.py. The results will be saved in the result directory.
Before training, images and videos have to be projected to latent space for efficient training. Execute python project_latent_space.py where the tensors will be saved in the fashion_dataset_tensor directory.
Run python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=<number of GPUs> train.py to train the model. The checkpoints will be saved in the checkpoint directory periodically. Also, you can view the training progress using tensorboardX located in video_progress or find the generated .mp4 on training_sample.
