Cognitive Actions Overview
Generate Tuned Image
The Generate Tuned Image action allows developers to create customized images by specifying parameters such as prompts, dimensions, and various refinement options. This action is particularly useful for applications requiring dynamic image generation based on user input or predefined criteria.
- Category: Image Generation
- Description: Generate a customized image via img2img or inpaint mode with various refinement options like LoRA scales and scheduler algorithms. Enhance the image quality by controlling parameters such as prompt strength, guidance scale, and noise fraction, while ensuring safe deployment through optional watermarking and safety checks.
Input
The input schema for this action requires several fields, some of which are optional. Below is a breakdown of the input parameters:
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
mask | string | No | URI of the input mask for inpaint mode. |
seed | integer | No | Random seed for reproducibility (leave blank for random). |
image | string | Yes | URI of the input image for transformation. |
width | integer | No | Width of the output image in pixels (default 1024). |
height | integer | No | Height of the output image in pixels (default 1024). |
prompt | string | Yes | Textual prompt guiding the image generation. |
scheduler | string | No | Method to schedule denoising steps (default "K_EULER"). |
outputCount | integer | No | Number of images to generate (between 1 and 4, inclusive; default 1). |
guidanceScale | number | No | Adjusts the magnitude of classifier-free guidance (default 7.5). |
applyWatermark | boolean | No | Indicates whether to apply a watermark (default true). |
negativePrompt | string | No | Text to direct the generator away from certain features. |
promptStrength | number | No | Strength of the prompt (range: 0 to 1; default 0.8). |
refinementStyle | string | No | Method of refining the image (default "no_refiner"). |
highNoiseFraction | number | No | Fraction of noise applied (range: 0 to 1; default 0.8). |
numInferenceSteps | integer | No | Total number of denoising steps (range: 1 to 500; default 50). |
loraAdjustmentScale | number | No | Scale of LoRA adjustments (range: 0 to 1; default 0.6). |
safetyCheckerDisabled | boolean | No | Option to disable the safety checker (default false). |
Example Input:
{
"width": 1024,
"height": 1024,
"prompt": "a poster of a fancy headphone with Thanksgiving promotions",
"scheduler": "K_EULER",
"outputCount": 1,
"guidanceScale": 7.5,
"applyWatermark": true,
"negativePrompt": "",
"promptStrength": 0.8,
"refinementStyle": "no_refiner",
"highNoiseFraction": 0.8,
"numInferenceSteps": 50,
"loraAdjustmentScale": 0.6
}
Output
When the Generate Tuned Image action is successfully executed, it returns an array of URLs pointing to the generated images.
Example Output:
[
"https://assets.cognitiveactions.com/invocations/629138b1-d942-4df4-b28c-5da501417f62/75ad6a04-cdbc-4a22-8a25-6fc324326a1c.png"

Conceptual Usage Example (Python)
Here’s how you might call the Generate Tuned Image action using Python. This example illustrates how to structure your input payload and send a request to the Cognitive Actions endpoint.
import requests
import json
# Replace with your Cognitive Actions API key and endpoint
COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY = "YOUR_COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY"
COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_EXECUTE_URL = "https://api.cognitiveactions.com/actions/execute" # Hypothetical endpoint
action_id = "bb694864-d0dd-4112-8bee-2468bbc12eab" # Action ID for Generate Tuned Image
# Construct the input payload based on the action's requirements
payload = {
"width": 1024,
"height": 1024,
"prompt": "a poster of a fancy headphone with Thanksgiving promotions",
"scheduler": "K_EULER",
"outputCount": 1,
"guidanceScale": 7.5,
"applyWatermark": True,
"negativePrompt": "",
"promptStrength": 0.8,
"refinementStyle": "no_refiner",
"highNoiseFraction": 0.8,
"numInferenceSteps": 50,
"loraAdjustmentScale": 0.6
}
headers = {
"Authorization": f"Bearer {COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_API_KEY}",
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
try:
response = requests.post(
COGNITIVE_ACTIONS_EXECUTE_URL,
headers=headers,
json={"action_id": action_id, "inputs": payload} # Hypothetical structure
)
response.raise_for_status() # Raise an exception for bad status codes (4xx or 5xx)
result = response.json()
print("Action executed successfully:")
print(json.dumps(result, indent=2))
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as e:
print(f"Error executing action {action_id}: {e}")
if e.response is not None:
print(f"Response status: {e.response.status_code}")
try:
print(f"Response body: {e.response.json()}")
except json.JSONDecodeError:
print(f"Response body: {e.response.text}")
In this code snippet, you will replace the placeholder for the API key and endpoint with your actual values. The input payload is structured based on the requirements for generating a tuned image.
