Reusing original.h5 and original_state.json on Model Dir

Post by pilipinoguy »

Hi,

Just started on this new hobby and its very good (not good for my electric bill lol) but worth it

My question is Reusing original.h5 and original_state.json on Model Dir, on training new models to place my face in them

I have trained my face to 2m iterations already and placed it on a music video. Cannot post since it gets copyright strike, but play them at home and have a good laugh with my friends and family

Can i reuse the original.h5 and original_state.json with another music video and place my face in them, Thanks again for this great software

The music video is my Input A, my face is input B

Not entirely sure what you mean. Yes, you can re-use models. No, you cannot use a model that is trained with (for example) Original as a basis for Dfaker. All models are unique.

Assuming that the person in both videos is the same, then yes, absolutely.

You do not train a model for a specific scene. You train a model for specific identities. So (for example) if you had trained you + Ed Sheeran, you could then swap yourself onto any Ed Sheeran video with the same model.

My word is final

Hi Torzdf,

Thanks for that reply/ solution. Im trying the other trainers now since i want more than 64px.

Does reusing the trained model .h5 and .json work on other trainers like dfaker, dfl-h128, dfl-sae, lae, fhaze-a, realface, unbalanced and villain.

I will still use Bruno Mars on A and my face on B. For bruno mars music videos, since close ups dont really look great on the original trainer. Thanks
