Trains a Stable Diffusion model to recognize and generate a specific subject (person, object, style) by using a small set of 3-5 images paired with a unique token identifier and class-prior preservation loss. The training process optimizes the text encoder and UNet simultaneously while regularizing against language drift using synthetic images from the base model. Supported in both OneTrainer and Kohya SS with automatic prompt templating (e.g., '[V] person' or '[S] dog').
Unique: Implements class-prior preservation loss (generating synthetic regularization images from base model during training) to prevent catastrophic forgetting; OneTrainer/Kohya automate the full pipeline including synthetic image generation, token selection validation, and learning rate scheduling based on dataset size
vs alternatives: More stable than vanilla fine-tuning due to class-prior regularization; requires 10-100x fewer images than full fine-tuning; faster convergence (30-60 minutes) than Textual Inversion which requires 1000+ steps
Stable-Diffusion scores higher at 55/100 vs CodeContests at 48/100. CodeContests leads on adoption, while Stable-Diffusion is stronger on quality and ecosystem.
