**EvoSDXL-JP-v1** is an experimental education-purpose Japanese SDXL Lightning. 
This model was created using the Evolutionary Model Merge method. 
Please refer to our [report](https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.13187) and [blog](https://sakana.ai/evosdxl-jp/) for more details. 
This model was produced by merging the following models. 
We are grateful to the developers of the source models.
