<p><strong>Response:</strong> In a sunlit meadow, a small tortoiseshell butterfly rests on a purple flower. A bee, with black and yellow stripes, lands on the same flower. The butterfly flaps its wings gently, while the bee busies itself, collecting nectar. The flower sways slightly in the breeze. The butterfly then takes off, and the bee follows, both heading to the next flower. The scene is a vivid display of insect interaction in a natural setting, with the colors of the butterfly and the bee contrasting against the green background of the meadow. The video captures this peaceful moment in a short 6-second duration.</p>

<p><strong>Response:</strong> The Colosseum in Rome, Italy is a magnificent ancient amphitheater made of stone and concrete. It is characterized by its large, arched openings and its semi-circular shape. The Colosseum has been partially restored, and its original color has faded, but the architectural details, like the columns and the semi-circular arches, are still visible.

<p><strong>Question:</strong> How does a total solar eclipse look like from Earth?</p>
<p><strong>Response:</strong> A total solar eclipse looks like a dark circle with a bright, white outer edge. This is a result of the Earth's rotation and the Earth's shadow, which partially obscures the sun's light. The bright white edge of the eclipse is caused by the sun's high energy and its interaction with the Earth's atmosphere, while the dark part of the eclipse is due to the Earth's shadow and the surrounding air currents. The solar eclipse's shape, with its bright white edge and dark center, is similar to the shape of a full moon or a dark disk. It is a natural phenomenon that occurs in the atmosphere of the Earth and is an important part of the solar system.</p>

## 🚀 Installation
### Recommended Environment
- **Software:** Python 3.10+, CUDA 12.4+ (required)
- **Hardware:** A GPU with at least 40GB VRAM is required for inference
### Installation Steps
```bash
bash ./setup_env.sh
```
### Download Model Weights
Please download all the necessary model checkpoints of [Lance-3B (Huggingface Link)](https://huggingface.co/bytedance-research/Lance) and place them in the `downloads/` directory.
## 📚 Usage
### Inference
Lance provides a unified command-line interface for all generation / editing / understanding tasks:
```bash
bash inference_lance.sh
```
- Before running, please configure the inference parameters at the top of `inference_lance.sh`.
- **Supported tasks:** `t2i`, `t2v`, `image_edit`, `video_edit`, `x2t_image`, and `x2t_video`. You can modify `TASK_DEFAULT_CONFIGS` in `inference_lance.py` to customize the default data samples for each task.
#### Available Tasks
| Task Name | Description | Example JSON |
|------------------------|--------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------|
| `t2v` | Text-to-Video generation | `config/examples/t2v_example.json` |
| `t2i` | Text-to-Image generation | `config/examples/t2i_example.json` |
| `image_edit` | Image editing | `config/examples/image_edit_example.json` |
| `video_edit` | Video editing | `config/examples/video_edit_example.json` |
| `x2t_image` | Image understanding | `config/examples/x2t_image_example.json` |
| `x2t_video` | Video understanding | `config/examples/x2t_video_example.json` |
For understanding examples:
- `config/examples/x2t_image_example.json`: image understanding examples for visual question answering and image-based reasoning.
- `config/examples/x2t_video_example.json`: video understanding examples for video question answering and video captioning.
#### Parameters
You can configure the following hyperparameters at the top of the `inference_lance.sh` script:
| Parameter | Default Value | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `MODEL_PATH` | `"downloads/lance_3b"` | Path to the downloaded Lance model weights. |
| `NUM_GPUS` | `1` | Number of GPUs to use for inference. |
| `VALIDATION_NUM_TIMESTEPS` | `30` | Number of denoising steps (e.g., 30 or 50). |
| `VALIDATION_TIMESTEP_SHIFT` | `3.5` | Timestep shift parameter for flow matching scheduling. |
| `CFG_TEXT_SCALE` | `4.0` | Classifier-Free Guidance (CFG) scale for text conditioning. |
| `VALIDATION_DATA_SEED` | `42` | Random seed for generation reproducibility. |
| `NUM_FRAMES` | `50` | Number of frames for video generation (Max: 121). *Unused for image tasks.* |
| `VIDEO_HEIGHT` / `VIDEO_WIDTH`| `768` | Spatial resolution. *Unused for editing tasks (determined by input image/video).* |
| `RESOLUTION` | `"video_480p"` | Base resolution preset (`image_768res` or `video_480p`). |
### Gradio
```python
python lance_gradio_t2v_v2t.py --gpus 0 --server-port 7860
