Face Morphing

Install

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Command Line

running run.py to generate the morphing frames from the source image ./src.jpg to the destination image ./dst.jpg and save all results to the folder ./results.

python run.py --src=./src.jpg --dst=./dst.jpg --out=./results --ext-points=./ext_points.json --plot --gif

Explaining about --ext-points

The program can landmark the 68 points on face automatically by dlib library.

To make the morphing process more smooth, trying option --ext-points to load extra points which were saved in a json file.

what about json file not exists? Don't worry.

If you set the --ext-points option but the file isn't created, there is a GUI for selecting the extra points manually. All extra points you selecting will be saved to --ext-points.
