+# DreamBooth training example for SANA
+
+[DreamBooth](https://arxiv.org/abs/2208.12242) is a method to personalize text2image models like stable diffusion given just a few (3~5) images of a subject.
+
+The `train_dreambooth_lora_sana.py` script shows how to implement the training procedure with [LoRA](https://huggingface.co/docs/peft/conceptual_guides/adapter#low-rank-adaptation-lora) and adapt it for [SANA](https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.10629).
+
+This will also allow us to push the trained model parameters to the Hugging Face Hub platform.
+
+## Running locally with PyTorch
+
+### Installing the dependencies
+
+Before running the scripts, make sure to install the library's training dependencies:
+
+**Important**
+
+To make sure you can successfully run the latest versions of the example scripts, we highly recommend **installing from source** and keeping the install up to date as we update the example scripts frequently and install some example-specific requirements. To do this, execute the following steps in a new virtual environment:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers
+cd diffusers
+pip install -e .
+```
+
+Then cd in the `examples/dreambooth` folder and run
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements_sana.txt
+```
+
+And initialize an [🤗Accelerate](https://github.com/huggingface/accelerate/) environment with:
+
+```bash
+accelerate config
+```
+
+Or for a default accelerate configuration without answering questions about your environment
+
+```bash
+accelerate config default
+```
+
+Or if your environment doesn't support an interactive shell (e.g., a notebook)
+
+```python
+from accelerate.utils import write_basic_config
+write_basic_config()
+```
+
+When running `accelerate config`, if we specify torch compile mode to True there can be dramatic speedups.
+Note also that we use PEFT library as backend for LoRA training, make sure to have `peft>=0.14.0` installed in your environment.
+
+### Dog toy example
+
+Now let's get our dataset. For this example we will use some dog images: https://huggingface.co/datasets/diffusers/dog-example.
+
+Let's first download it locally:
+
+```python
+from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
+
+local_dir = "./dog"
+snapshot_download(
+    "diffusers/dog-example",
+    local_dir=local_dir, repo_type="dataset",
+    ignore_patterns=".gitattributes",
+)
+```
+
+This will also allow us to push the trained LoRA parameters to the Hugging Face Hub platform.
+
+[Here is the Model Card](model_zoo.md) for you to choose the desired pre-trained models and set it to `MODEL_NAME`.
+
+Now, we can launch training using:
+
+```bash
+export MODEL_NAME="Efficient-Large-Model/Sana_1600M_1024px_diffusers"
+export INSTANCE_DIR="dog"
+export OUTPUT_DIR="trained-sana-lora"
+
+accelerate launch train_dreambooth_lora_sana.py \
+  --pretrained_model_name_or_path=$MODEL_NAME  \
+  --instance_data_dir=$INSTANCE_DIR \
+  --output_dir=$OUTPUT_DIR \
+  --mixed_precision="bf16" \
+  --instance_prompt="a photo of sks dog" \
+  --resolution=1024 \
+  --train_batch_size=1 \
+  --gradient_accumulation_steps=4 \
+  --use_8bit_adam \
+  --learning_rate=1e-4 \
+  --report_to="wandb" \
+  --lr_scheduler="constant" \
+  --lr_warmup_steps=0 \
+  --max_train_steps=500 \
+  --validation_prompt="A photo of sks dog in a bucket" \
+  --validation_epochs=25 \
+  --seed="0" \
+  --push_to_hub
+```
+
+For using `push_to_hub`, make you're logged into your Hugging Face account:
+
+```bash
+huggingface-cli login
+```
+
+To better track our training experiments, we're using the following flags in the command above:
+
+- `report_to="wandb` will ensure the training runs are tracked on [Weights and Biases](https://wandb.ai/site). To use it, be sure to install `wandb` with `pip install wandb`. Don't forget to call `wandb login <your_api_key>` before training if you haven't done it before.
+- `validation_prompt` and `validation_epochs` to allow the script to do a few validation inference runs. This allows us to qualitatively check if the training is progressing as expected.
+
+## Notes
+
+Additionally, we welcome you to explore the following CLI arguments:
+
+- `--lora_layers`: The transformer modules to apply LoRA training on. Please specify the layers in a comma seperated. E.g. - "to_k,to_q,to_v" will result in lora training of attention layers only.
+- `--complex_human_instruction`: Instructions for complex human attention as shown in [here](https://github.com/NVlabs/Sana/blob/main/configs/sana_app_config/Sana_1600M_app.yaml#L55).
+- `--max_sequence_length`: Maximum sequence length to use for text embeddings.
+
+We provide several options for optimizing memory optimization:
+
+- `--offload`: When enabled, we will offload the text encoder and VAE to CPU, when they are not used.
+- `cache_latents`: When enabled, we will pre-compute the latents from the input images with the VAE and remove the VAE from memory once done.
+- `--use_8bit_adam`: When enabled, we will use the 8bit version of AdamW provided by the `bitsandbytes` library.
+
+Refer to the [official documentation](https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/main/en/api/pipelines/sana) of the `SanaPipeline` to know more about the models available under the SANA family and their preferred dtypes during inference.
