To further improve generation flexibility and efficiency, EasyControl employs a Position-Aware Training Paradigm that standardizes input conditions to fixed resolutions, allowing the generation of images with arbitrary aspect ratios and flexible resolutions. It also incorporates a Causal Attention mechanism combined with Key-Value (KV) Cache technology, which substantially reduces image synthesis latency by caching and reusing attention computations during inference. These innovations collectively enable EasyControl to support multiple resolutions, aspect ratios, and multi-condition combinations while maintaining high computational efficiency. The framework demonstrates exceptional performance across various visual tasks, including spatial and subject control, style transfer, and multi-condition generation scenarios.
EasyControl supports a wide range of control models such as Canny edge detection, depth maps, HED edge sketches, human pose estimation, semantic segmentation, inpainting, and subject control, providing precise guidance for image generation. Its lightweight modules, typically around 15 million parameters per condition, are much smaller than traditional ControlNet models, enabling faster inference and easier integration. The framework is open-source and compatible with popular tools like ComfyUI, making it accessible for developers and researchers to incorporate into their workflows. EasyControl’s combination of modularity, efficiency, and multi-condition harmony marks a significant advancement in controllable diffusion transformer models, opening new possibilities for creative and practical applications.
