ExtSwap: Leveraging Extended Latent Mapper for Generating High Quality Face Swapping
We present a novel face swapping method using the progressively growing structure of a pre-trained StyleGAN. Previous methods use different encoder decoder structures, embedding integration networks to produce high-quality results, but their quality suffers from entangled representation. We disentangle semantics by deriving identity and attribute features separately. By learning to map the concatenated features into the extended latent space, we leverage the state-of-the-art quality and its rich semantic extended latent space. Extensive experiments suggest that the proposed method successfully disentangles identity and attribute features and outperforms many state-of-the-art face swapping methods, both qualitatively and quantitatively.
