Fast Face-swap Using Convolutional Neural Networks
We consider the problem of face swapping in images, where an input identity
is transformed into a target identity while preserving pose, facial expression,
and lighting. To perform this mapping, we use convolutional neural networks
trained to capture the appearance of the target identity from an unstructured
collection of his/her photographs.This approach is enabled by framing the face
swapping problem in terms of style transfer, where the goal is to render an
image in the style of another one. Building on recent advances in this area, we
devise a new loss function that enables the network to produce highly
photorealistic results. By combining neural networks with simple pre- and
post-processing steps, we aim at making face swap work in real-time with no
input from the user
