Advanced Parameters & High-Precision Controls
Direct low-level control over the underlying Bionic C++ sd-cli (stable-diffusion.cpp) engine with robust error isolation, automatic boundary clamping, and zero-overhead defaults.

1. Samplers & Schedulers
Pairing dpm++2m with the karras scheduler yields photorealistic facial textures and skin micro-details in only 10 to 12 steps.
# Python SDK
from termux_diffusion import generate
result = generate(
"hyperrealistic portrait of a cyberpunk hacker, neon lighting, 8k",
model="realistic",
sampling_method="dpm++2m",
schedule="karras",
steps=12,
cfg_scale=4.0
)
2. VAE Tiling (Mobile Peak RAM Reduction)
Splits latent decoding into 64x64 spatial tiles, slashing peak VRAM/RAM consumption by 70% to prevent Android Low Memory Killer (LMK) termination.
# Python SDK
generate("futuristic landscape", width=768, height=768, vae_tiling=True)
3. Image-to-Image (Img2Img)
Transform sketches, rough drawings, or existing photos into finished AI art.
# CLI Execution
termux-diffusion generate "convert sketch into oil painting" -i /sdcard/Pictures/sketch.png --strength 0.70
Safety, Boundary Clamping & Fail-Fast Isolation
- Missing File Safety: If
init_imgorcontrol_netpoints to a non-existent file, the wrapper immediately halts with a clearFileNotFoundErrorto avoid unintended generation. - Automatic Clamping: Out-of-bounds numbers (e.g.
strength=999orclip_skip=50) are automatically clamped to valid ranges (1.0and2) with actionable warning logs. - Zero-Overhead Defaults: Unset parameters are cleanly omitted from the C++ command line, preserving 100% baseline speed.
