ComfyUI Node: ImageBatchRepeatInterleaving

ImageBatchRepeatInterleaving:

The ImageBatchRepeatInterleaving node is designed to duplicate each image in a batch a specified number of times, creating an interleaved sequence of repeated images. This can be particularly useful when you need to augment your dataset or ensure that each image in a batch is processed multiple times in subsequent operations. For example, if you have a batch of 5 images and set the repeat count to 2, the resulting batch will contain 10 images, with each original image appearing twice in succession. This node helps in maintaining consistency and redundancy in image processing workflows, making it easier to handle tasks that require repeated image inputs.

ImageBatchRepeatInterleaving Input Parameters:

images

This parameter accepts a batch of images that you want to repeat. The images should be in a tensor format, typically used in deep learning frameworks. The batch size can vary, but each image in the batch will be processed according to the repeat count specified.

repeats

This parameter determines how many times each image in the batch will be repeated. The default value is 1, meaning no repetition. The minimum value is 1, and the maximum value is 4096. Increasing this value will proportionally increase the size of the output batch by repeating each image the specified number of times.

ImageBatchRepeatInterleaving Output Parameters:

images

The output is a batch of images where each image from the input batch has been repeated the specified number of times. The resulting tensor will have a batch size equal to the original batch size multiplied by the repeat count. This ensures that each image appears consecutively in the output batch, facilitating further processing or analysis.

ImageBatchRepeatInterleaving Usage Tips:

• Use this node when you need to augment your dataset by repeating images, which can be useful for training models that require a larger number of samples.
• Adjust the repeats parameter based on the specific needs of your workflow. For instance, if you need each image to be processed multiple times in subsequent nodes, set the repeat count accordingly.
• Combine this node with other batch processing nodes to create complex image processing pipelines that require repeated inputs.

ImageBatchRepeatInterleaving Common Errors and Solutions:

ValueError: Expected input batch size to be greater than 0

• Explanation: This error occurs when the input batch of images is empty or has a batch size of zero.
• Solution: Ensure that the input batch contains at least one image before passing it to the node.

RuntimeError: The repeat count must be a positive integer

• Explanation: This error is raised when the repeats parameter is set to a non-positive value.
• Solution: Set the repeats parameter to a positive integer value, with a minimum of 1.

MemoryError: Unable to allocate memory for the repeated batch

• Explanation: This error can occur if the repeated batch size is too large for the available memory.
• Solution: Reduce the repeats parameter or process the images in smaller batches to avoid memory overflow.
