    Abstract: The subject technology generates a first image of a face using a GAN model. The subject technology applies 3D virtual hair on the first image to generate a second image with 3D virtual hair. The subject technology projects the second image with 3D virtual hair into a GAN latent space to generate a third image with realistic virtual hair. The subject technology performs a blend of the realistic virtual hair with the first image of the face to generate a new image with new realistic hair that corresponds to the 3D virtual hair. The subject technology trains a neural network that receives the second image with the 3D virtual hair and provides an output image with realistic virtual hair. The subject technology generates using the trained neural network, a particular output image with realistic hair based on a particular input image with 3D virtual hair.

    Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for realistic head turns and face animation synthesis. An example method includes receiving a source frame of a source video, where the source frame includes a head and a face of a source actor, generating source pose parameters corresponding to a pose of the head and a facial expression of the source actor; receiving a target image including a target head and a target face of a target person, determining target identity information associated with the target head and the target face of the target person, replacing source identity information in the source pose parameters with the target identity information to obtain further source pose parameters, and generating an output frame of an output video that includes a modified image of the target face and the target head adopting the pose of the head and the facial expression of the source actor.

    Abstract: The subject technology receives frames of a source media content, the frames of the source media content including representations of a head and a face of a source actor. The subject technology generates, based at least in part on the frames of the source media content, sets of source pose parameters. The subject technology receives at least one target image, the at least one target image including representations of a target head and a target face of a target entity. The subject technology provides the sets of source pose parameters to a neural network to determine facial landmarks for head turns and facial expressions. The subject technology generates, based at least in part on the sets of source pose parameters and the facial landmarks for head turns and facial expressions, an output media content. The subject technology provides augmented reality content based at least in part on the output media content for display on a computing device.

    Abstract: A methodology for training a machine learning model to generate color-neutral input face images is described. For each training face image from a training dataset that is used for training the model, the training system generates an input face image, which has the color and lighting of a randomly selected image from the set of color source images, and which has facial features and expression of a face object from the training face image. Because, during training, the machine learning model is “confused” by changing the color and lighting of a training face image to a randomly selected different color and lighting, the trained machine learning model generates a color neutral embedding representing facial features from the training face image.

    Abstract: In some embodiments, users' experience of engaging with augmented reality technology is enhanced by providing a process, referred to as face animation synthesis, that replaces an actor's face in the frames of a video with a user's face from the user's portrait image. The resulting face in the frames of the video retains the facial expressions, as well as color and lighting, of the actor's face but, at the same time, has the likeness of the user's face. An example face animation synthesis experience can be made available to uses of a messaging system by providing a face animation synthesis augmented reality component.

The method may then proceed with generating sets of source pose parameters that represent positions of the head and facial expressions of the source actor. The method may further include receiving at least one target image including the target head and the target face of a target person, determining target identity information associated with the target face, and generating an output video based on the target identity information and the sets of source pose parameters. Each frame of the output video can include an image of the target face modified to mimic at least one of the positions of the head of the source actor and at least one of facial expressions of the source actor.
