# Low Rank Adapter (LoRA)
A Low Rank Adapter (LoRA) can be thought of as a file or plugin on top of an image generation process. It performs fine-tuning on top of a generic image generation model. It enhances the quality of generated images with specific styles or themes.
LoRa enables customizing AI models to produce higher quality results, and unique art styles.
Common use cases:
- Specific style (e.g., specific artist's or studio's style)
- Character specialization: generate specific characters (e.g., Mario, Superman, yourself, etc)
- Quality improvements (e.g., details, texture, etc)
