Low VRAM generation
Generating AI models (especially image generators) with minimal GPU memory requirements, enabling training and inference on consumer-grade hardware.
Key Techniques
- LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation) for efficient fine-tuning
- Model quantization
- Optimized inference pipelines
- Careful memory management
