- 🎉 [2026/6/26] Our paper has been accepted to ECCV 2026!
- 🚀 [2026/3/18] We have released the EndoCoT-Data.
- 🚀 [2026/3/12] We have released the EndoCoT repository and ckpts.
- EndoCoT is a reasoning paradigm for diffusion models that enables step-by-step inference. It outperforms conventional training methods on Qwen-Image-Edit-2511.
- And provide transparent, intermediate reasoning trajectories.
git clone https://github.com/InternLM/EndoCoT
cd EndoCoT
conda create -n EndoCoT python=3.10
conda activate EndoCot
# Please install the version of torch compatible with your machine.
pip install -r requirements.txt
# Please install the version of vLLM compatible with your machine.-
Download the ckpt:
- You may find our pretrained weights at: EndoCoT
Following the configuration of Diffthinker, we provide a customized checkpoint for Qwen-Image-Edit. This checkpoint has been merged from the original safetensors to ensure compatibility with*Diffsynth-Studio* training. Please use the checkpoint provided in this repository instead of the official version for correct loading and inference.
-
Test Single Case
cd test python test.py \ --task Maze \ --model_root /path/to/merged_ckpts \ --lora_path /path/to/your_lora_weight.safetensors \ --input_image ./data/sudoku_sample.png \ --output_dir ./outputs/sudoku_results
-
Eval Our Ckpt
We follow the exact same setting as Diffthinker
cd Maze bash eval/gen_and_parse.sh bash eval/eval_path.sh
-
Download the datasets & metadata.csv
- You may find our training data at: EndoCoT dataset
Since the metadata uses relative paths, please ensure the dataset files are placed in the same directory as metadata.csv
-
Train your model
cd DiffSynth-Studio bash add/Maze/stage1.sh python change_ckpt_prefix.py --src /path/to/the/Maze/save/dir/Maze_stage1 bash add/Maze/stage2.sh python change_ckpt_prefix.py --src /path/to/the/Maze/save/dir/Maze_stage2
Note on Customization: Since the current implementation is straightforward, you can only manually adjust the latent reasoning steps in DiffSynth-Studio/diffsynth/pipelines/qwen_image.py:
- Line 442: Modify infer_steps.
- Line 471: Modify training_steps.
