This repository contains the video generation code of SIGGRAPH 2024 paper X-Portrait.

Installation

Note: Python 3.9 and Cuda 11.8 are required.

bash env_install.sh

Model

Please download pre-trained model from here, and save it under "checkpoint/"

Testing

bash scripts/test_xportrait.sh

parameters:
model_config: config file of the corresponding model
output_dir: output path for generated video
source_image: path of source image
driving_video: path of driving video
best_frame: specify the frame index in the driving video where the head pose best matches the source image (note: precision of best_frame index might affect the final quality)
out_frames: number of generation frames
num_mix: number of overlapping frames when applying prompt travelling during inference
ddim_steps: number of inference steps (e.g., 30 steps for ddim)

Performance Boost

efficiency: Our model is compatible with LCM LoRA (https://huggingface.co/latent-consistency/lcm-lora-sdv1-5), which helps reduce the number of inference steps.
expressiveness: Expressiveness of the results could be boosted if results of other face reenactment approaches, e.g., face vid2vid, could be provided via parameter "--initial_facevid2vid_results".
