Introduction

We introduce Timestep Embedding Aware Cache (TeaCache), a training-free caching approach that estimates and leverages the fluctuating differences among model outputs across timesteps, thereby accelerating the inference. TeaCache works well for Video Diffusion Models, Image Diffusion models and Audio Diffusion Models. For more details and results, please visit our project page.

Instruction for Supporting Other Models 🤖

Welcome for PRs to support other models.
If the custom model is based on or has similar model structure to the models we've supported, you can try to directly transfer TeaCache to the custom model. For example, rescaling coefficients for CogVideoX-5B can be directly applied to CogVideoX1.5, ConsisID and rescaling coefficients for FLUX can be directly applied to TangoFlux.
Otherwise, you can refer to these successful attempts, e.g., 1, 2.
