The SOTA face swap models still suffer the problem of either target identity (i.e., shape) being leaked or the target non-identity attributes (i.e., background, hair) failing to be fully preserved in the final results. We show that this…
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have proven to be surprisingly efficient for image editing by inverting and manipulating the latent code corresponding to an input real image. This editing property emerges from the disentangled nature…
