# ControlNet ## ControlNet The ControlNet model was introduced in [Adding Conditional Control to Text-to-Image Diffusion Models](https://huggingface.co/papers/2302.05543) by Lvmin Zhang and Maneesh Agrawala. It provides a greater degree of control over text-to-image generation by conditioning the model on additional inputs such as edge maps, depth maps, segmentation maps, and keypoints for pose detection. The abstract from the paper is: *We present a neural network structure, ControlNet, to control pretrained large diffusion models to support additional input conditions. The ControlNet learns task-specific conditions in an end-to-end way, and the learning is robust even when the training dataset is small (< 50k). Moreover, training a ControlNet is as fast as fine-tuning a diffusion model, and the model can be trained on a personal devices. Alternatively, if powerful computation clusters are available, the model can scale to large amounts (millions to billions) of data. We report that large diffusion models like Stable Diffusion can be augmented with ControlNets to enable conditional inputs like edge maps, segmentation maps, keypoints, etc. This may enrich the methods to control large diffusion models and further facilitate related applications.* ### Loading from the original format By default the [ControlNetModel](https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/v0.21.0/en/api/models/controlnet#diffusers.ControlNetModel) should be loaded with [from\_pretrained()](https://huggingface.co/docs/diffusers/v0.21.0/en/api/models/overview#diffusers.ModelMixin.from_pretrained), but it can also be loaded from the original format using `FromOriginalControlnetMixin.from_single_file` as follows: Copied ``` from diffusers import StableDiffusionControlnetPipeline, ControlNetModel url = "https://boincai.com/lllyasviel/ControlNet-v1-1/blob/main/control_v11p_sd15_canny.pth" # can also be a local path controlnet = ControlNetModel.from_single_file(url) url = "https://boincai.com/runwayml/stable-diffusion-v1-5/blob/main/v1-5-pruned.safetensors" # can also be a local path pipe = StableDiffusionControlnetPipeline.from_single_file(url, controlnet=controlnet) ``` ### ControlNetModel #### class diffusers.ControlNetModel [\](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/v0.21.0/src/diffusers/models/controlnet.py#L110) ( in\_channels: int = 4conditioning\_channels: int = 3flip\_sin\_to\_cos: bool = Truefreq\_shift: int = 0down\_block\_types: typing.Tuple\[str] = ('CrossAttnDownBlock2D', 'CrossAttnDownBlock2D', 'CrossAttnDownBlock2D', 'DownBlock2D')only\_cross\_attention: typing.Union\[bool, typing.Tuple\[bool]] = Falseblock\_out\_channels: typing.Tuple\[int] = (320, 640, 1280, 1280)layers\_per\_block: int = 2downsample\_padding: int = 1mid\_block\_scale\_factor: float = 1act\_fn: str = 'silu'norm\_num\_groups: typing.Optional\[int] = 32norm\_eps: float = 1e-05cross\_attention\_dim: int = 1280transformer\_layers\_per\_block: typing.Union\[int, typing.Tuple\[int]] = 1encoder\_hid\_dim: typing.Optional\[int] = Noneencoder\_hid\_dim\_type: typing.Optional\[str] = Noneattention\_head\_dim: typing.Union\[int, typing.Tuple\[int]] = 8num\_attention\_heads: typing.Union\[int, typing.Tuple\[int], NoneType] = Noneuse\_linear\_projection: bool = Falseclass\_embed\_type: typing.Optional\[str] = Noneaddition\_embed\_type: typing.Optional\[str] = Noneaddition\_time\_embed\_dim: typing.Optional\[int] = Nonenum\_class\_embeds: typing.Optional\[int] = Noneupcast\_attention: bool = Falseresnet\_time\_scale\_shift: str = 'default'projection\_class\_embeddings\_input\_dim: typing.Optional\[int] = Nonecontrolnet\_conditioning\_channel\_order: str = 'rgb'conditioning\_embedding\_out\_channels: typing.Optional\[typing.Tuple\[int]] = (16, 32, 96, 256)global\_pool\_conditions: bool = Falseaddition\_embed\_type\_num\_heads = 64 ) Parameters * **in\_channels** (`int`, defaults to 4) — The number of channels in the input sample. * **flip\_sin\_to\_cos** (`bool`, defaults to `True`) — Whether to flip the sin to cos in the time embedding. * **freq\_shift** (`int`, defaults to 0) — The frequency shift to apply to the time embedding. * **down\_block\_types** (`tuple[str]`, defaults to `("CrossAttnDownBlock2D", "CrossAttnDownBlock2D", "CrossAttnDownBlock2D", "DownBlock2D")`) — The tuple of downsample blocks to use. * **only\_cross\_attention** (`Union[bool, Tuple[bool]]`, defaults to `False`) — * **block\_out\_channels** (`tuple[int]`, defaults to `(320, 640, 1280, 1280)`) — The tuple of output channels for each block. * **layers\_per\_block** (`int`, defaults to 2) — The number of layers per block. * **downsample\_padding** (`int`, defaults to 1) — The padding to use for the downsampling convolution. * **mid\_block\_scale\_factor** (`float`, defaults to 1) — The scale factor to use for the mid block. * **act\_fn** (`str`, defaults to “silu”) — The activation function to use. * **norm\_num\_groups** (`int`, *optional*, defaults to 32) — The number of groups to use for the normalization.

In this case, `attention_head_dim` must be a multiple of `slice_size`. Enable sliced attention computation. When this option is enabled, the attention module splits the input tensor in slices to compute attention in several steps. This is useful for saving some memory in exchange for a small decrease in speed. **set\_attn\_processor** [\](https://github.com/huggingface/diffusers/blob/v0.21.0/src/diffusers/models/controlnet.py#L520) ( processor: typing.Union\[diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnProcessor2\_0, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.XFormersAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.SlicedAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnAddedKVProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.SlicedAttnAddedKVProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnAddedKVProcessor2\_0, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.XFormersAttnAddedKVProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.CustomDiffusionAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.CustomDiffusionXFormersAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAAttnProcessor2\_0, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAXFormersAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAAttnAddedKVProcessor, typing.Dict\[str, typing.Union\[diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnProcessor2\_0, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.XFormersAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.SlicedAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnAddedKVProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.SlicedAttnAddedKVProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.AttnAddedKVProcessor2\_0, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.XFormersAttnAddedKVProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.CustomDiffusionAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.CustomDiffusionXFormersAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAAttnProcessor2\_0, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAXFormersAttnProcessor, diffusers.models.attention\_processor.LoRAAttnAddedKVProcessor]]] ) Parameters * **processor** (`dict` of `AttentionProcessor` or only `AttentionProcessor`) — The instantiated processor class or a dictionary of processor classes that will be set as the processor for **all** `Attention` layers.
