Abstract

We present a novel system to replace the face in a video with the face of a different person from a single image, where the face is not limited to be in a specific pose, e.g. exactly frontal. There are some systems to replace the face in a video with the face from another image/video, but usually the source face is restricted to certain poses. For example, [Cheng et al. 2009] developed a system to replace the face in a video with another face from a frontal and a profile images. [Dale et al. 2011] replaced the face in a video with a face from another video, where the face pose and lighting in the source and target video must be sufficiently similar. Our system is able to replace the target face with another face of an entirely different pose and animate the new face based on the original speech in the video.
