Definition
This is the foundational pipeline for the Stable Diffusion v1.5 model, widely used for general-purpose text-to-image synthesis. It relies on a U-Net denoiser and CLIP text encoder to map textual prompts into latent space, where iterative denoising produces the final image. It is known for its balance of speed, quality, and extensive community support for fine-tuning and extensions.
