  ## Riffusion v1 Model
  
  Riffusion is a latent text-to-image diffusion model capable of generating spectrogram images given any text input. These spectrograms can be converted into audio clips.
  
  The model was created by [Seth Forsgren](https://sethforsgren.com/) and [Hayk Martiros](https://haykmartiros.com/) as a hobby project.
  
  You can use the Riffusion model directly, or try the [Riffusion web app](https://www.riffusion.com/).
  
  The Riffusion model was created by fine-tuning the **Stable-Diffusion-v1-5** checkpoint. Read about Stable Diffusion here [🤗's Stable Diffusion blog](https://huggingface.co/blog/stable_diffusion).
  
  ### Model Details
  - **Developed by:** Seth Forsgren, Hayk Martiros
  - **Model type:** Diffusion-based text-to-image generation model
  - **Language(s):** English
  - **License:** [The CreativeML OpenRAIL M license](https://huggingface.co/spaces/CompVis/stable-diffusion-license) is an [Open RAIL M license](https://www.licenses.ai/blog/2022/8/18/naming-convention-of-responsible-ai-licenses), adapted from the work that [BigScience](https://bigscience.huggingface.co/) and [the RAIL Initiative](https://www.licenses.ai/) are jointly carrying in the area of responsible AI licensing. See also [the article about the BLOOM Open RAIL license](https://bigscience.huggingface.co/blog/the-bigscience-rail-license) on which our license is based.
  - **Model Description:** This is a model that can be used to generate and modify images based on text prompts. It is a [Latent Diffusion Model](https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.10752) that uses a fixed, pretrained text encoder ([CLIP ViT-L/14](https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.00020)) as suggested in the [Imagen paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.11487).
  
  ### Direct Use 
  The model is intended for research purposes only. Possible research areas and
  tasks include
  
  - Generation of artworks, audio, and use in creative processes.
  - Applications in educational or creative tools.
  - Research on generative models.
  
  ### Datasets
  The original Stable Diffusion v1.5 was trained on the [LAION-5B](https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.08402) dataset using the [CLIP text encoder](https://openai.com/blog/clip/), which provided an amazing starting point with an in-depth understanding of language, including musical concepts. The team at LAION also compiled a fantastic audio dataset from many general, speech, and music sources that we recommend at [LAION-AI/audio-dataset](https://github.com/LAION-AI/audio-dataset/blob/main/data_collection/README.md).
  
  ### Fine Tuning
  
  Check out the [diffusers training examples](https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/training/overview) from Hugging Face. Fine tuning requires a dataset of spectrogram images of short audio clips, with associated text describing them. Note that the CLIP encoder is able to understand and connect many words even if they never appear in the dataset. It is also possible to use a [dreambooth](https://huggingface.co/blog/dreambooth) method to get custom styles.
