DiT360 is a framework for high-quality panoramic image generation, leveraging both perspective and panoramic data in a hybrid training scheme. It adopts a two-level strategy—image-level cross-domain guidance and token-level hybrid supervision—to enhance perceptual realism and geometric fidelity.

• High Perceptual Realism: It produces panoramic images with high resolution and clear details for lifelike visual quality.
• Precise Geometric Fidelity: It correctly models multi-scale distortions in panoramic images with smooth, continuous edges.
• Versatile Applications: It enables robust handling of generated assets across multiple tasks, seamlessly supporting both inpainting and outpainting.

Clone the repo first:

git clone https://github.com/Insta360-Research-Team/DiT360.git
cd DiT360

(Optional) Create a fresh conda env:

conda create -n dit360 python=3.12
conda activate dit360

Install necessary packages (torch > 2):

# pytorch (select correct CUDA version, we test our code on torch==2.6.0 and torchvision==0.21.0)
pip install torch==2.6.0 torchvision==0.21.0

# other dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

We have uploaded the dataset to Hugging Face. For more details, please visit Insta360-Research/Matterport3D_polished.

For a quick start, you can try:

from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("Insta360-Research/Matterport3D_polished")

# check the data
print(ds["train"][0])

If you encounter any issues, please refer to the official Hugging Face documentation.

For a quick use, you can just try:

python inference.py

⚠️ Note: We only trained the model on datasets with a resolution of 1024 × 2048, so using other input sizes may lead to abnormal results. In addition, without any optimization, the inference process requires approximately 37 GB of GPU memory, so please be aware of the memory usage.

We provide a training pipeline based on Insta360-Research/Matterport3D_polished, along with corresponding launch scripts. You can start training with a single command:

bash train.sh

After training is completed, you will find a checkpoint file saved under the output directory, typically like:

model_saved/lightning_logs/version_x/checkpoints/vsclip_epoch=xxx.ckpt/checkpoint/mp_rank_00_model_states.pt

You can extract the LoRA weights from the full .pt checkpoint by running:

python get_lora_weights.py <path_to_your_pt_file> <output_dir>

If you don’t specify output_dir, the extracted weights will be saved by default to:

lora_output/

After that, you can directly use your trained LoRA in the inference script. Simply replace the default model path "fenghora/DiT360-Panorama-Image-Generation" in inference.py with your output directory (e.g., "lora_output"), and then run:

python inference.py

Mix training aims to leverage both panoramic images and perspective images to improve the model’s generalization across different viewpoints.

You need to prepare two .jsonl files:

• One for panoramic images
• One for perspective images

Each line in a .jsonl file should represent a single training sample with the following format:

{"image": "path/to/image.jpg", "caption": "a description of the scene", "mask": "path/to/mask.png"}

The mask is a PNG (or similar) image used to specify which regions should be supervised during training:

• White regions (255, 255, 255) indicate areas that are supervised.
• Black regions (0, 0, 0) indicate areas that are ignored.

Specifically:

• For panoramic images, the mask is typically an all-white image (meaning the entire image is supervised).
• For perspective images, the mask corresponds to the valid projected area derived from the panoramic-to-perspective mapping.

The perspective images and their corresponding masks can be generated from panoramic images using an equirectangular-to-perspective projection.
We highly recommend using the excellent open-source library below for this purpose:

py360convert

This library provides high-quality conversions between panoramic and perspective views, making it easy to generate consistent training data for mixed-view learning.

To start training, please refer to the provided scripts:
train_mix_staged_lora_dynamic.sh and train_mix_staged_lora_dynamic.py.

We treat both inpainting and outpainting as image completion tasks, where the key lies in how the mask is defined. A simple example is already provided in our codebase.

For a quick start, you can simply run:

python editing.py

In our implementation, regions with a mask value of 1 correspond to the parts preserved from the source image. Therefore, in our example, you can invert the mask as follows for inpainting:

mask = 1 - mask  # for inpainting

This part is built upon Personalize Anything.
