Framework that leverages the rich and diverse generative facial prior for the challenging blind face restoration task. This prior is incorporated into the restoration process with channel-split spatial feature transform layers, allowing us to achieve a good balance of realness and fidelity. Extensive comparisons demonstrate the superior capability of GFP-GAN in joint face restoration and color enhancement for real-world images, outperforming prior art. Conventional methods fine-tune an existing AI model to restore images by gauging differences between the artificial and real photos. That frequently leads to low-quality results, the scientists said. The new approach uses a pre-trained version of an existing model (NVIDIA's StyleGAN-2) to inform the team's own model at multiple stages during the image generation process. The technique aims to preserve the "identity" of people in a photo, with a particular focus on facial features like eyes and mouths.
