So, I've read the few posts about reusing B side weights. I reuse B side all the time and have never tried to load and freeze the b-side, I've only used the generalized freeze weight option box.
Would it be worth placing a "B-side only" box in the training side of Faceswap for these cases? It seems to me it comes up a lot.
My other question is for clarification:
To reuse my B side weights and continue it's training in Phase A, if I have No Shared FC, Enable G-Block, Split FC, and Split decoders, I would :
Under weights-Load Layers, tick off, FC B, G-Block B, and Decoder B.
Right?
Question 3:
Since I'm reusing B Weights, once my B Weights are at the perfect level (because I've would have been reusing and training b-side over multiple models and instances) I then freeze the b-side while training new A-side models. Correct?
For instance:
Using Steve Buscemi as a B side for three different instances, I finally have him down to an expectable level (we'll say a loss of .01) but now I want to use my .01-Steve Buscemi on a new model of Princess Leia. This is where I would freeze everything pertaining to B-side for the entire training process. Correct?
