Introduction

This repo, named LivePortrait, contains the official PyTorch implementation of our paper LivePortrait: Efficient Portrait Animation with Stitching and Retargeting Control. We are actively updating and improving this repository. If you find any bugs or have suggestions, welcome to raise issues or submit pull requests (PR) 💖.

🔥 Getting Started

1. Clone the code and prepare the environment

git clone https://github.com/KwaiVGI/LivePortrait
cd LivePortrait

# create env using conda
conda create -n LivePortrait python==3.9.18
conda activate LivePortrait
# install dependencies with pip
pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Download pretrained weights

Download the pretrained weights from HuggingFace:

# you may need to run `git lfs install` first
git clone https://huggingface.co/KwaiVGI/liveportrait pretrained_weights

Or, download all pretrained weights from Google Drive or Baidu Yun. We have packed all weights in one directory 😊. Unzip and place them in ./pretrained_weights ensuring the directory structure is as follows:

pretrained_weights
├── insightface
│   └── models
│       └── buffalo_l
│           ├── 2d106det.onnx
│           └── det_10g.onnx
└── liveportrait
    ├── base_models
    │   ├── appearance_feature_extractor.pth
    │   ├── motion_extractor.pth
    │   ├── spade_generator.pth
    │   └── warping_module.pth
    ├── landmark.onnx
    └── retargeting_models
        └── stitching_retargeting_module.pth

3. Inference 🚀

Fast hands-on

python inference.py

If the script runs successfully, you will get an output mp4 file named animations/s6--d0_concat.mp4. This file includes the following results: driving video, input image, and generated result.

image

Or, you can change the input by specifying the -s and -d arguments:

python inference.py -s assets/examples/source/s9.jpg -d assets/examples/driving/d0.mp4

# disable pasting back to run faster
python inference.py -s assets/examples/source/s9.jpg -d assets/examples/driving/d0.mp4 --no_flag_pasteback

# more options to see
python inference.py -h

Driving video auto-cropping

📕 To use your own driving video, we recommend:

  • Crop it to a 1:1 aspect ratio (e.g., 512x512 or 256x256 pixels), or enable auto-cropping by --flag_crop_driving_video.
  • Focus on the head area, similar to the example videos.
  • Minimize shoulder movement.
  • Make sure the first frame of driving video is a frontal face with neutral expression.

Below is a auto-cropping case by --flag_crop_driving_video:

python inference.py -s assets/examples/source/s9.jpg -d assets/examples/driving/d13.mp4 --flag_crop_driving_video

If you find the results of auto-cropping is not well, you can modify the --scale_crop_video, --vy_ratio_crop_video options to adjust the scale and offset, or do it manually.

Template making

You can also use the .pkl file auto-generated to speed up the inference, and protect privacy, such as:

python inference.py -s assets/examples/source/s9.jpg -d assets/examples/driving/d5.pkl

4. Gradio interface 🤗

We also provide a Gradio interface for a better experience, just run by:

python app.py

You can specify the --server_port, --share, --server_name arguments to satisfy your needs!

Or, try it out effortlessly on HuggingFace 🤗

5. Inference speed evaluation 🚀🚀🚀

We have also provided a script to evaluate the inference speed of each module:

python speed.py

Below are the results of inferring one frame on an RTX 4090 GPU using the native PyTorch framework with torch.compile:

Model Parameters(M) Model Size(MB) Inference(ms)
Appearance Feature Extractor 0.84 3.3 0.82
Motion Extractor 28.12 108 0.84
Spade Generator 55.37 212 7.59
Warping Module 45.53 174 5.21
Stitching and Retargeting Modules 0.23 2.3 0.31

Note: The values for the Stitching and Retargeting Modules represent the combined parameter counts and total inference time of three sequential MLP networks.
