EverybodyDanceNow reproduced in pytorch

Written by Peihuan Wu, Jinghong Lin, Yutao Liao, Wei Qing and Yan Xu, including normalization and face enhancement parts.

We train and evaluate on Ubuntu 16.04, so if you don't have linux environment, you can set nThreads=0 in EverybodyDanceNow_reproduce_pytorch/src/config/train_opt.py.

Pre-trained models and source video

• Download vgg19-dcbb9e9d.pth.crdownload here and put it in ./src/pix2pixHD/models/
  

• Download pose_model.pth here and put it in ./src/PoseEstimation/network/weight/
  

• Source video can be download from here

• Download pre-trained vgg_16 for face enhancement here and put in ./face_enhancer/

Full process

Pose2vid network

Make source pictures

• Put source video mv.mp4 in ./data/source/ and run make_source.py, the label images and coordinate of head will save in ./data/source/test_label_ori/ and ./data/source/pose_souce.npy (will use in step6). If you want to capture video by camera, you can directly run ./src/utils/save_img.py

Make target pictures

• Rename your own target video as mv.mp4 and put it in ./data/target/ and run make_target.py, pose.npy will save in ./data/target/, which contain the coordinate of faces (will use in step6).

Train and use pose2vid network

• Run train_pose2vid.py and check loss and full training process in ./checkpoints/

• If you break the traning and want to continue last training, set load_pretrain = './checkpoints/target/ in ./src/config/train_opt.py

• Run normalization.py rescale the label images, you can use two sample images from ./data/target/train/train_label/ and ./data/source/test_label_ori/ to complete normalization between two skeleton size

• Run transfer.py and get results in ./results

Face enhancement network

Train and use face enhancement network

• Run cd ./face_enhancer.
• Run prepare.py and check the results in data directory at the root of the repo (data/face/test_sync and data/face/test_real).
• Run main.py to rain the face enhancer. Then run enhance.py to obtain the results
  This is comparision in original (left), generated image before face enhancement (median) and after enhancement (right). FaceGAN can learn the residual error between the real picture and the generated picture faces.

Performance of face enhancement

Gain results

• cd back to the root dir and run make_gif.py to create a gif out of the resulting images.
