+# Control-LoRA inference example
+
+Control-LoRA is introduced by Stability AI in [stabilityai/control-lora](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/control-lora) by adding low-rank parameter efficient fine tuning to ControlNet. This approach offers a more efficient and compact method to bring model control to a wider variety of consumer GPUs.
+
+## Installing the dependencies
+
+Before running the scripts, make sure to install the library's training dependencies:
+
+**Important**
+
+To make sure you can successfully run the latest versions of the example scripts, we highly recommend **installing from source** and keeping the install up to date as we update the example scripts frequently and install some example-specific requirements. To do this, execute the following steps in a new virtual environment:
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers
+cd diffusers
+pip install .
+```
+
+Then cd in the example folder  and run
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+And initialize an [🤗Accelerate](https://github.com/huggingface/accelerate/) environment with:
+
+```bash
+accelerate config
+```
+
+## Inference on SDXL
+
+[stabilityai/control-lora](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/control-lora) provides a set of Control-LoRA weights for SDXL. Here we use the `canny` condition to generate an image from a text prompt and a reference image.
+
+```bash
+python control_lora.py
+```
