Unlike some of the other training scripts, textual_inversion.py has a custom dataset class, [`TextualInversionDataset`](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/b81c69e489aad3a0ba73798c459a33990dc4379c/examples/textual_inversion/textual_inversion.py#L487) for creating a dataset. You can customize the image size, placeholder token, interpolation method, whether to crop the image, and more. If you need to change how the dataset is created, you can modify `TextualInversionDataset`.  
Next, you'll find the dataset preprocessing code and training loop in the [`main()`](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/839c2a5ece0af4e75530cb520d77bc7ed8acf474/examples/textual_inversion/textual_inversion.py#L573) function.  
The script starts by loading the [tokenizer](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/b81c69e489aad3a0ba73798c459a33990dc4379c/examples/textual_inversion/textual_inversion.py#L616), [scheduler and model](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/b81c69e489aad3a0ba73798c459a33990dc4379c/examples/textual_inversion/textual_inversion.py#L622):  
```py
# Load tokenizer
if args.tokenizer_name:
tokenizer = CLIPTokenizer.from_pretrained(args.tokenizer_name)
elif args.pretrained_model_name_or_path:
tokenizer = CLIPTokenizer.from_pretrained(args.pretrained_model_name_or_path, subfolder="tokenizer")

# Load scheduler and models
noise_scheduler = DDPMScheduler.from_pretrained(args.pretrained_model_name_or_path, subfolder="scheduler")
text_encoder = CLIPTextModel.from_pretrained(
args.pretrained_model_name_or_path, subfolder="text_encoder", revision=args.revision
)
vae = AutoencoderKL.from_pretrained(args.pretrained_model_name_or_path, subfolder="vae", revision=args.revision)
unet = UNet2DConditionModel.from_pretrained(
args.pretrained_model_name_or_path, subfolder="unet", revision=args.revision
)
```  
The special [placeholder token](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/b81c69e489aad3a0ba73798c459a33990dc4379c/examples/textual_inversion/textual_inversion.py#L632) is added next to the tokenizer, and the embedding is readjusted to account for the new token.  
Then, the script [creates a dataset](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/b81c69e489aad3a0ba73798c459a33990dc4379c/examples/textual_inversion/textual_inversion.py#L716) from the `TextualInversionDataset`:  
```py
train_dataset = TextualInversionDataset(
data_root=args.train_data_dir,
tokenizer=tokenizer,
size=args.resolution,
placeholder_token=(" ".join(tokenizer.convert_ids_to_tokens(placeholder_token_ids))),
repeats=args.repeats,
learnable_property=args.learnable_property,
center_crop=args.center_crop,
set="train",
)
train_dataloader = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(
train_dataset, batch_size=args.train_batch_size, shuffle=True, num_workers=args.dataloader_num_workers
)
```  
Finally, the [training loop](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/b81c69e489aad3a0ba73798c459a33990dc4379c/examples/textual_inversion/textual_inversion.py#L784) handles everything else from predicting the noisy residual to updating the embedding weights of the special placeholder token.  
If you want to learn more about how the training loop works, check out the [Understanding pipelines, models and schedulers](../using-diffusers/write_own_pipeline) tutorial which breaks down the basic pattern of the denoising process.
