ParaLip
1. Preparation
Data Preparation
We provide the first frame of each test example for inference. Besides, we include the audio pieces of 5 test examples to generate talking lip videos with human voice.
a) Download and decompress the TCD-TIMIT dataset, then put them in the data
directory
tar -xvf timit.tar
mv timit data/
b) Run the following scripts to pack the dataset for inference.
export PYTHONPATH=.
python datasets/lipgen/timit/gen_timit.py --config configs/lipgen/timit/lipgen_timit.yaml
We don't provide the full datasets of TCD-TIMIT because of the licence issue. You can download it by yourself if necessary.
2. Inference Example
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python tasks/timit_lipgen_task.py --config configs/lipgen/timit/lipgen_timit.yaml --exp_name timit_2 --infer --reset
We also provide:
- the pre-trained model of ParaLip on TCD-TIMIT.
Remember to put the pre-trained models in
checkpoints/timit_2
directory respectively.
Video Demos
Video samples can be found in our demo page.
