Disney Research Studios demonstrates automatic face swapping with faster, cheaper AI

Disney Research Studios and ETH Zurich have published a study detailing a new algorithm that is able to swap faces from one subject to another in high-resolution photos and videos. Of note, this system is able to fully automate the face-swapping process, presenting the first instance of megapixel-resolution machine-generated imagery that is 'temporally coherent' and photo-realistic. The new algorithm involves taking the face of a subject and modifying it using the face of another person, blendin...
