Facke: a Survey on Generative Models for Face Swapping

In this work, we investigate into the performance of mainstream neural generative models on the very task of swapping faces. We have experimented on CVAE, CGAN, CVAE-GAN, and conditioned diffusion models. Existing finely trained models have already managed to produce fake faces (Facke) indistinguishable to the naked eye as well as achieve high objective metrics. We perform a comparison among them and analyze their pros and cons. Furthermore, we proposed some promising tricks though they do not apply to this task.
