Personalized 3D Talking Head Animation with Style Preservation
Analysis
This paper addresses the limitations of existing speech-driven 3D talking head generation methods by focusing on personalization and realism. It introduces a novel framework, PTalker, that disentangles speaking style from audio and facial motion, and enhances lip-synchronization accuracy. The key contribution is the ability to generate realistic, identity-specific speaking styles, which is a significant advancement in the field.
Key Takeaways
- •Proposes PTalker, a novel framework for personalized 3D talking head animation.
- •Employs style disentanglement to preserve speaking style.
- •Utilizes a three-level alignment mechanism to improve lip-synchronization accuracy.
- •Demonstrates superior performance compared to existing methods in generating realistic and stylized 3D talking heads.
Reference
“PTalker effectively generates realistic, stylized 3D talking heads that accurately match identity-specific speaking styles, outperforming state-of-the-art methods.”
