ComfyUI Node: SavePosEmbeds

SavePosEmbeds:

The SavePosEmbeds node is designed to facilitate the saving of positional embeddings associated with images. This node is particularly useful for AI artists who work with embeddings and need to store them for future use or analysis. By saving these embeddings, you can efficiently manage and retrieve the positional data linked to your images, ensuring that your workflow remains organized and streamlined. The primary function of this node is to take a batch of positional embeddings and save each one to a specified directory, associating them with their corresponding image filenames. This process helps in maintaining a structured dataset where each embedding is easily accessible and identifiable.

SavePosEmbeds Input Parameters:

pos_embed

pos_embed is a batch of positional embeddings that you want to save. These embeddings are typically in a 3-dimensional format, where the dimensions represent the batch size, height, and width of the embeddings. The node expects this input to be correctly formatted, as it will assert that the number of dimensions is exactly three. This parameter is crucial as it contains the actual data that will be saved to disk.

cache_dir

cache_dir is a string parameter that specifies the directory where the positional embeddings will be saved. By default, this is set to "eden_images/xander_big", but you can change it to any directory path that suits your needs. This directory will be used to store the saved embeddings, ensuring they are organized and easily retrievable.

non_embedded_image_filenames

non_embedded_image_filenames is a list of filenames corresponding to the images for which the positional embeddings are being saved. The length of this list must match the batch size of the pos_embed parameter. This ensures that each embedding is correctly associated with its respective image. The filenames are used to generate unique identifiers for saving the embeddings, making it easy to match them with their original images.

SavePosEmbeds Output Parameters:

cache_dir

The output parameter cache_dir is a string that returns the directory path where the positional embeddings have been saved. This output is useful for confirming the save location and for subsequent retrieval of the saved embeddings. It ensures that you know exactly where your data is stored, facilitating better data management and organization.

SavePosEmbeds Usage Tips:

• Ensure that the pos_embed input is a 3-dimensional tensor to avoid assertion errors.
• Verify that the length of non_embedded_image_filenames matches the batch size of pos_embed to ensure proper association between embeddings and images.
• Customize the cache_dir to a directory path that is convenient for your project to keep your saved embeddings organized and easily accessible.

SavePosEmbeds Common Errors and Solutions:

Expected batch to have 3 dims but got: <number> dims

• Explanation: This error occurs when the pos_embed input does not have exactly three dimensions.
• Solution: Ensure that the pos_embed input is a 3-dimensional tensor before passing it to the node.

Expected the batch size of pos_embed (<number>) to be the same as the number of images found in non_embedded_images_folder: <number>. non_embedded_image_filenames: <filenames>

• Explanation: This error occurs when the length of non_embedded_image_filenames does not match the batch size of pos_embed.
• Solution: Verify that the list of filenames provided in non_embedded_image_filenames has the same length as the batch size of the pos_embed tensor.
