VAE Encode (for Inpainting)
Documentation
- Class name:
VAEEncodeForInpaint
- Category:
latent/inpaint
- Output node:
False
This node is designed for encoding images into a latent representation suitable for inpainting tasks, incorporating additional preprocessing steps to adjust the input image and mask for optimal encoding by the VAE model.
Input types
Parameter | Comfy dtype | Description |
---|---|---|
pixels | IMAGE | The input image to be encoded. This image undergoes preprocessing and resizing to match the VAE model's expected input dimensions before encoding. |
vae | VAE | The VAE model used for encoding the image into its latent representation. It plays a crucial role in the transformation process, determining the quality and characteristics of the output latent space. |
mask | MASK | A mask indicating the regions of the input image to be inpainted. It is used to modify the image before encoding, ensuring that the VAE focuses on the relevant areas. |
grow_mask_by | INT | Specifies how much to expand the inpainting mask to ensure seamless transitions in the latent space. A larger value increases the area affected by inpainting. |
Output types
Parameter | Comfy dtype | Description |
---|---|---|
latent | LATENT | The output includes the encoded latent representation of the image and a noise mask, both crucial for subsequent inpainting tasks. |
