Hello,
I'm a student studying faceswap.
Through [Tip] Training best practices, I learned about pretraining/model.
I want to know about pretraining,
but nobody uses it, do there is no guide.
So if you are okay,
can you tell me how to use pretraining?
I'm personally of the opinion that pre-training offers little to no benefit.
The basic concept is to start training a model on lots of random faces so it learns what a face is, prior to moving over to your actual training set.
My word is final
I know from your post that this method is not good.
But I just want to know about various methods for pretraining.
Pretraining is where you train the model with other faces before you try to train it for your original and swap faces. That's all pretraining is, however, we do not recommend it since it damages the model's ability to focus on a single identity swap.
